Removing door panels.

[celeryman22]

I am going to be removing both door panels for a cleaning and a dye job. My question is before I start, is there anything I should change while its off, ie. Anti-rattles?

Let me know, I want to order them before I start.

Thanks, Cel

get some white grease so you can lub up everything.

On my 80, I was having problems with the power door locks. The passenger side would move in and out when I hit the switch, but not far enough to actually lock/unlock the door. It was very hard to move physically too. The drivers side was slow. I disassembled the lock mechanism and found the little swivel assembly that all the rods connect to was pretty corroded and sticking. I cleaned the corrosion off the best I could and lubed it really well and that took care of my lock problem. Like the others mentioned, I lubed the window tracks and mechanisms and the windows go up and down much better now. I would also get some adhesive to reattach the plastic shield under the door panel.
