Door latch lubricant/grease

[Harry S.]

It's time to pull both door latches on the 63 as the old lubricant has hardened. Very difficult to turm the key.

After I clean them up what is the recommended lubricant/grease to use?

Thanks

Lubriplate. Still available and sold my many auto parts stores. NAPA is one.

Lubriplate has many types/variations today, but the one I think you want is #105.

Harry, washed my latch mechanisms in solvent, sprayed with white lithium grease (Carquest brand) and what a difference. Also, while you're in there, spray the spring etc on the window mechanism (manual) which really helps out there too. Everything works like 'butter' now.
