87 gxl sunroof will go up but not back

Ok so I've been working out some of the smaller issues with this car an one of them is the sunroof, it will go up when I press the button, but not back, and when manually cranked back it will go back and the motor will slide it back forward and down. Any ideas on what I should look for?

Clean it all out, take the assembly apart and lube everything up.
