Rear window
I have 92 4runner and just had the rear regulator replaced. The guy at the body shop said to keep the gears clean of gunk. But never said how or what to use to clean it and the relube it if need be..I was wondering if any of you had experince with this?

Just use white grease (not lithium grease) or multi purpose grease. Grease up the teeth on the regulator and the window tracks (just the bottom one). I used the white lithium grease and its a pain to clean when you finally realize that you have to fix or replace a part in there.

Are there any write-ups on taking the tailgate apart, what/where to lube etc?
I always learn more by pictures than words so I hope there is a write-up.
Thanks,
Jason

I just pop the carpet board off and use an oil can. This seems to be the cleanest way to go about it. I lube the gears, the conector arms, and anything else that moves.
