I posted elsewhere that I had replaced all of the rubber from the front track with felt weatherstrip. It worked. It was easy. I still have to add some more felt to cut down on wind noise but that will be easy too. Sorry, I haven't done the passenger side so that I could take pictures as I do it but hopefully soon. BTW you do still have to lube the rear track even with the felt on the front.

Personally I think this is the easiest permanent fix but that's just my opinion. You know what they say about opinions: "opinions are like _______, everyone has one" (you can fill in the blank).

So I did this washer trick and it sounds like it is going to burn my motor. It is VERY slow now and still did not fix the forward tilt. I plan to take the washers out. Maybe that SBC will fix that.

Check the front track to make sure there is nothing gumming it up. Clean it good. Lube it till it drips and try again. Remember that a lot of the source of the problem is that the rubber track has too much friction against the glass. All of the other fixes will be useless if you don't handle that.

Still haven't converted my passenger window track over to felt but I still plan on it ... eventually.
