window regulators and tracks

[mad dog]

Good Morning, Im assembling my Duster window regulators and tracks, i have them all cleaned up and all the old factory dried up grease removed, What can i use to lube all moving parts again just like the factory did?
I would like to use something that will last a long long time.
I have wheel and bearing grease and some synthetic grease that i used in my wiper pivot zerks....any suggestions?

I use AGS Sil-Glyde on all inner door regulators, tracks, latch mechanisms etc., plus many other areas as well:

AGS has been around for a long time and makes several excellent products. They even make fixed length brake lines. They also make these two lubricating products:

Lithium greases can work well too, but can dry hard in use over the decades. I have a gallon container of Lith-Ease I have been using for years. It seems better than others, but it is still a lithium based grease.

Door-Ease is a wax based lubricant good for cleaner, lighter sliding area or joining area work and can be used on rubber. Chrysler even specified the Door-Ease by name for certain applications in some documentation.

Lubricate works well too.

Lubriplate is excellent for window regulators and tracks as well. I used Lubriplate for this purpose for years until I switched to Sil-Glyde, which I had previously used for other things. Both lubricate equally well in this application, and possess good water repellency, but I now prefer Sil-Glyde, because it is easier and cleaner with which to work.

In the 1980s, I bought three gallons of Lubriplate 130-AA, which is an NLGI #1, calcium based grease, new and sealed, at a surplus store for $3.00 per can. I'm down to less than half of a can left.

I also picked up a couple of cans of this as well for $3.00 per can:

This is an NLGI #2 multipurpose grease, for automotive and artillery (GAA), made by Battenfield Grease and Oil, under NATO Code Number G-403 per MIL-G-10924D. I still have a partial can of this left.
