Is it the rubber squeaking or the motor in the door?

i spray silicon spray inside the rubber seal around the door where the glass slides into. let it dry and windex the window clean. remove the door panel and use a waterproff grease on the little white rollers for the window arms, thjey are always 100% dry and need grease/lube bad! I use waterproof grease and i still regrease once a year to keep the window flying up and down the track. My truck wont win many 1/4 mile races but my windows sure would

No they still use the metal rods no cable/pulley system on the F-250's.
