The doors on my 92 XJ freeze up more than any other vehicle I've owned. I
guess I'll have to pull the inner panels and lubricate the latch and lock
linkages when the weather warms up. What is the best lube for this job. I've
got some T-9 around here somwhere. It's a liquid or spray water displacement
marine product that turns waxxy as it dries. Would this work?


i use PB oil (white and yellow can) it is very good it leaves a dry lube film that does not collect dirt
i use it for everything. wal-mart sells it (wd-40 is ok but it will rust metal because the water added to it)
we refuse to use it at work for that reason. can also try graphite or graphite oil

There's no water in WD40, it _displaces_ water. Water Displacement 40.
Where do you work?
