I tried greasing the tracks the balls ride in. Didn`t work, at least for that door check.
The problem as many mentioned is between the balls. They hang up in there.

I have thought, why couldn`t a hole be drilled between the balls, tap it, and install a zerk and give it a shot of grease.
Then put in a plug where the zerk is.
Or maybe shooting in some kroil first and let it do it`s magic. then shoot in the grease.

Or just replace them. But think maybe only URO`s are the only one`s available?
Dealer if available probly cost as much as your car is worth.

Or start hitting the yards for W126 parts.

We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. Funny how that works
