Bought a vehicross this weekend, dropping off at the dealer today...suggestions?

When I first purchased my VX I didn’t touch my windows tell I got it home and silicon spread the tracks. That was a big thing on this sight at the time, luckily I haven’t had any problems. The previous owner was a lawyer and was pretty anal about warranty fixes, lucky me. I actually had a hard time getting the title from the dealer, it seams the lawyer was having second thoughts about his trade in and wanted his VX back. I guess its hard to be special and then not.

$350 new window installed, And back ordered

I called and said I'd pass on the new window and that I was going to install an aftermarket bracket for it...

She said no problem.

Thanks for the heads up!!

I'm no stranger to the web world, or forums... I was a member and leading poster on ZR2.com for several years... You can dig up old stories about my truck by searching keywords such as: Vandalized ZR2, ZR2 Shot with SHotgun, ZR2 Tires slashed Not fun

I'll try to find some pictures for you guys.

Anyway, I did have a question, does anyone have a write up on Lubing the windows?

Just pop off the door panel and spray everything really good?

Recommended Lube? Has anyone used an axel grease or something that isn't "Consumable" so it'll last longer.

Either spray silicone, or dry graphite powder are the favorite flavors around here...any type of grease in an "open" environment, is gonna pick up dust & other contaminents, & compound the problem.
I like a product called "Jigaloo"...also I am about to try a "dry" lubricant I found in the local hardware, designed for sliding windows & patio doors.
Pop the panels & get into the tracks with a rag folded 2-4 layers thick on a butter knife or something to clean the accumulated gunk out of the channel before lubing.
