That's how my passenger side is. Tips on the fix?

I finally got her out to do some local wheeling with friends. For the owner of the green Jeep it was his first time offroad. The red jeep owner had some experience in the mud. Both of the Jeeps were clanging, creaking, thumping, and clunking on the trail while the Land Cruiser was whisper quiet. Honestly I have very limited offroad experience but both guys wanted me to lead just in case things got hairy.
Although no one got stuck, I want a sticker that reads Official Jeep Recovery Vehicle

Clean the runners and apply this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005RNEH5O/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It also comes in small tubes, but this is more cost effective.
There is a you tube vid "How to fix electric windows 80 series"... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PHywpJR4gY ...kind of a hoot.
Replace the runners. Did all 4 of mine this summer. Went from slow in summer, impossible in winter, to good. We had -20 here the other day. No prob.
If only I could figure out how to stop my dodge truck windows from freezing shut.
Installed my poor man's Front Runner roof rack. Thanks Paul @ Equipt!
Finally got around to replacing the factory radio.

with having already hit -35C a couple time this year already, i felt bad for my LX being as it didn't have a powered parking spot, So i cleaned up the garage
the goal however was to be able to get to the back counter for working on small projects like headlight swaps, grill conversions, dash panel mods and so on
Mission accomplished the garage with the TACO in winter was un-usable, with the LX we can around it front and rear, and da car has lots of space

Taught my 4 year old daughter how to change the oil. (Meanwhile my 9yo son was conveniently nowhere to be found.) She was very fascinated and quite the helper. I swear I'm going to work for her in her repair shop some day.
Sorry no pics...but the v5 yellow box is very compact and epoxy sealed...with only 2 micro switches exposed and a red and green led...it's barely bigger than a book of matches....just unplug the speed sensor at the t case...plug in the new harness...plug OEM wiring into new harness and zip tie outta the way...
power steering pump rebuild. Sounds like the gear is ticking 
I removed the Transmission oil pan and installed a new Filter, I was surprised to see that there was a aftermarket gasket in there. I guess the PO had used a Non Toyota filter kit somewhere along the way.
Installed Pioneer TS-G1644R speakers in the front doors. The sound is amazing compared to the stock speakers.

Finally installed my suspension and got some new treads. I went with j's in the front and heavies in the rear with 315 km2's. No action shots yet but these will have to do

Did some snow wheeling today
Pulled the fuel injectors to send out for refurbishing.
Took me about 4 hours. Exhausting but fun.

A buddy took this pic of my truck. Says he's not a fan of the stinkbug look. I don't see a problem....
