I used GUNK to remove all of the old crud from the bottom, top and rear panel sliders, then I used
regular grease all along the way for each slider. Some folks prefer oil on the bottom slider due
to sand etc, but I'm careful and I use grease.

Also, I find it best to remove the cover of the rear slider (that is under the right rear window)
to get gooed acess to the rillers.  Find the 2 (I think) screws up in there and then the cover
comes off by pushing straight up (I think).  More on this in the archives.

Gravity will slide my door open/closed if I'm parked on an hill!

I also use a liberal amount of anti-rust oil by KROWN.COM.    M
