Yo 87,

Sone previous owners or shops may have replaced greaseable components with those that have no fitting.

Following by Ford:

"Important lubrication points for typical chassis and engines are shown in the following illustrations. Vehicles with optional equipment may have slightly different or additional lubrication points. When special equipment or accessories are installed on the vehicle, consult the manufacturer's literature for lubrication procedures."

Yo,

Tailgate Replacement by Dustin S

Excerpts;

"...This is what the complete regulator looks like once you have pulled it out. One of the reasons why my window wouldn't go up or down was because the regulator was so rusty.

The arms wouldn't move freely because of the lack of lubrication and lots of friction. I could barely move the arms by hand once the motor was taken out. I got another one from a junkyard for $50 and the problem has been cured...

...The only things left inside the tailgate are the two window runners, each is held on by two bolts. On one of my runners, a mount was rusted off as shown in the picture.

This allowed the window to sit crooked in the tailgate and did not allow it to slide up and down easily...

...This picture shows my Macguyver method of fixing the bracket.

There is enough play in the mounting points on the tailgate to allow adjustments to the runners to compensate for any irregularities...

... One thing I would like to mention is that I coated the entire inside of my new tailgate with rubberized undercoating to prevent any rust..."

Tailgate Window Motor Removal & Torque Pin Replacement by jowens1126

"Apply dry (Teflon) **** to the flocked surfaces that touch the glass; dry **** prevents noise & abrasion, and allows the glass to move faster; take off the TG access cover and spray slides & tracks is

With PTFE in the tracks on either side so the regulator toggles slide up and down easy"

Ford recommends, "Use Silicone Lubricant C0AZ-19553-AA (jelly) and D7AZ-19553-AA (spray) or equivalent meeting Ford specification ESR-M13P4-A on the door and window weatherstrips whenever necessary. Silicone lubricant helps avoid weatherstrip squeaks and retards excess weatherstrip wear from chafing between the door glass upper frame and the weatherstrip. It also helps to retain door window alignment by reducing friction between the glass frame and the rubber weatherstrip. Use Multi-Purpose Grease Spray D7AZ-19584-AA or equivalent meeting Ford specifications ESR-M1C159-A and ESB-M1C106-B to lubricate door and tailgate hinges. Apply an even coat to all hinge pivot points as outlined in the maintenance schedules or when a binding or squeaking condition occurs..."

miesk5 note, test the silicone on a regular styrofoam cup first; if the cup gets funky or melts, then the can or tube contans oil, a regular occurrence now, esp if from China.
