Hey guys, what do ya'll recomend to put on the sliding door that goes into the cabin to make it slide easier. It is really hard to slide. I've tried lubing it with WD, but that didn't help.

Thanks,

Most likely the wheels on the bottom of thedoor are shot. Take them off and you should be able to match up a set at Home depot.
 
I have adjustment screws on the top and bottom wheels that make it slide smoothly. It would take alot of use to wear the wheels out.
 
Break it out and clean all the moving assembly, a little light grease (WD-40 - "Water Displacement" - 40, is way too light), and you'll be good to go. Break-Free CLP (gun de-crudder) is your friend here - great for breaking down grease munked up with dirt.
 
I used lithium grease on mine-Big MISTAKE. Be careful of using grease, it will turn black and you will be forever wiping black grease smudges off the track, your shoes, feet & etc.
