I could not find a Dorman window track on Amazon, or anywhere else. Would you mind providing a link?I did this with my old window tracks and motor which made them faster. At the same time I installed new window runs. within the past week on a trip the driver's side started to slow down a little bit over time and then the motor ended up failing.
I just finished installing a new Doorman window track and motor from Amazon.

As for the motor, I'm a bit confused. Assuming this is the same truck, the exhaustive motor cleaning by @SUMMIT CRUISERS only lasted 6 months and now you're buying an aftermarket replacement? So why not skip all of the cleaning and just buy the Dorman motor?
I was looking for the Dorman glass run Jr used, that's what I couldn't find on Amazon.Here's the Dorman #:

Thanks for the clarification on the motor. I'm curious, it's been about a year that you've cleaned the motor(s), how long have they lasted and are they showing any signs of simply wearing-out? That was one of the best write-ups I've read.
I'm surprised there has been very little talk about removing and cleaning the glass run. Has anyone else tried this? I don't think TNNPIG is very active, so I'm curious about other experiences.I'm on the last leg of a total restoration/Isuzu diesel swap and had super slow windows as well. So slow in fact that I had to grab my glass with one hand to help it up. Everyone needs to keep in mind that spraying any type of lube into your run channels will only be a temporary fix. Dust and dirt will stick to that lube in the tracks and only amplify your real problem. Instead try this. Roll your glass all the way down. Pull the rubber window run channels out and use dawn dishwashing liquid and an old toothbrush to scrub the buildup inside of the rubber where the glass rides. Rinse and while still wet the rubbers will slide easily back into the doors. I have been in the auto body business for over 20 years and seen this on hundreds of vehicles. My windows work now effortlessly with speed just like new. Auto manufacturers don't lube the runs at the factory so why would you? Inside this rubber where the glass rides is where all the friction is when the glass moves. Trust me cleaning out years of buildup will amaze you at how well your windows will work again. They may not look dirty but just pull that drivers door rubber out and start scrubbing. You'll be surprised at all of the black mess that comes out of it!
Agree. I been replacing 24yr old OEM parts on my truck since I got it. I figure, if this weatherstrip or switch or grab handle or whatever lasted 24yrs, a new one will last just as long.
For me, that is worth the extra cost of OEM parts.
Cheers
You make a point, but I'm replying to you on a Chinese-made(likely be an 8 yr old) iPad, which has been flawless in my years of ownership...Big difference between japanese engineered and chinese copied. Looks like you have 4 japanese vehicles in your sig. Would you buy chinese copies of them?
Very nice. I will have to do that when it's warmer.
