    I've got some silicone spray that I used on my Jeep that worked really well. I plan on lubing it up really good before using it.


    And the junkyard might be better but then again it is used and you can't predict how long it would last.

    I put one of the cheapie window regulators (from RockAuto) in mine. It lasted about 8 months.

    I've sinced replaced witha Dorman from Checker and it's basically the same as OEM whereas the cheapie had a plastic return pully assembly.

    The cheapo you got from ebay will work, for a little while. When it breaks (it will break), replaced it with a good one.

    The Dorman from Checker has a lifetime warranty.
