| Hi guys. I want to tackle the problem of my driver window coming off the tracks. I know there are 2 repair parts offered: The factory linear slider (?)  OR Dorman 74444 roller  Is the Dorman part any better? Thanks | |

| The Dorman part will work. I used them to replace my sliders. Tim Swink gave me a bunch of them.
If I recall, I may have just snapped them into the rail rather than slide them in from the end. | |

| The factory ones are the ones that break, Dorman's are the one's that are used.

| The rollers are a one time fix. The sliders will break again through the middle hole. | |

dormans are easier to install,. I've got it back together & working with Dorman part. Is white grease good for this? | |
