Hey, I'm normally parked over on the 60 group, but noticed the thread on the main page. I just went through the windows in my 89 that were slow as, well, you know...
Anyway, I ordered new rubber channels and they work like new. If you service the motors, meaning, put the proper grease where it should go and then replace the channels, you should be fine. I wouldn't think to replace the motors unless they quit working altogether.
The rubber in the channels just gets hard and clamps down on the windows. The new rubber, lets them flow as intended. It's about an hour job for all 4 windows in a 62 model. I'd imagine about the same in yours.
later,
mike
