Window seals...

My windows get sluggish when it rains... Where are you guys getting the window seals?

This stuff works great. Otherwise I hunt the yards for a good set. New door seals I get from Toyota or the ebay.

I'll give it a shot, but does it matter if mine only stick when it's wet out?

Thanks!

Yep, dirt and water probably combine to make it stick.
I would clean seals as much as possible then apply the silicone.
Inspected and lubricated the gears on your regulator, too?

Nope, haven't pulled anything apart yet. I was going to buy any replacement items before I dug in since I try to DD this truck as much as possible. Keeps the miles off my SD :-D

I'll open it up today and check them out. Thanks!

Did the silicone work for you?

Kinda. I didn't take the doors apart cause I was short on time, but I shot some of the stuff in the window tracks as a stop-gap until I can take them apart and do it right. Seems to work smoother, but not as good as if I'd have done it right the first time, I'm sure.
