Hey Ron, For the door panel, you pop up the window control switch then there's some screws I think in there, then there's that black piece up in front of the window, pop that off and then lift up on the panel and pull out. I was in there checking my conections, thats it, window didn't want to roll up, don't know where to lube.

Get some plummers grease from the hardware store and lube up the window tracks, It makes my windows go up and down twice as fast as they used to. I just lubed the upper part of the tracks real heavy and went up and down a bunch to spread it all around. It has worked good so far.

Hey Mike isnt there a screw under the light/reflector on the door panel also?

I think your right Costa, its been awhile since I pulled mine off..Yep, Ronnie's got it.. I really wished Adrian and company would fix this search function, you don't get what you want even if you do an advanced search I,m lost without it and just think how much page space they would save if people could find what they need, no need to post up a thread, rant over..I feel better now..

Use Google to search! type "door panel removal site:ford-trucks.com/forums" into google. Only bad thing is that searches the WHOLE site, so you'll probably have to wade through a lot of stuff. As for lubing your window...
