Hi Rich-
I had a similar problem with the window rubber strips on my BJ8. After
having tried several different rubber lubricants it was suggested that I try
Armor All-Protectant.
First I lowered the windows all the way down. Using my fingers I applied
the Armor All- Protectant to the rubber strip on both the under and upper
surfaces. Rolled the window up and let it set over night. The next day when I
tried to lower the window much to my surprise it worked just they should.
What a dummy I am. After having represented Armor All in the mid '70 in
the Southeastern states I should have known that it works wonders on almost
anything rubber,

(I have the exact problem you stated. I wont have the car on the road 'till
next week but I had planned to use some rubber lubricant and clean and wax
the
windows to see if it improves the "drag". The old rubber was tapered but
this
new stuff from Moss is stiff. It curls in as the window goes down. I've
been
meaning to call Moss but I have too many other issues in getting back on
the
road. I didn't like the felt strip the sent me either.
