Doors squeeky and hard to move?
Did some searching and didn't find anything on this... Anybody's doors really hard to open and shut? My 93's doors seem ridiculously difficult (which has resulted in the previous owner busting the interior handle all to pieces, dammit), and they squeak like a stereotypical 70's ghetto sled. I sprayed a buttload of lithium grease in the hinges, but it didn't seem to make any difference. The car hasn't been wrecked and it's significantly worse in the winter. Any ideas?
At least I don't have to worry about them opening themselves when I'm parked on a hill......

Mine were really bad too...I put everythiny from ky jelly to wd-40 on that hinge and it still made all sorts of noises and was really hard to open and close. Eventually I just undid the hinge on the car side (not the doors side) and smacked the hinge inside the door. Now the door is really light to open and close and swings very very freely. Only problem is you have to stop the door from swinging into other people cars when you park because the hinge was the only thing holding the door back. I am very happy with the way it is now though.

Dammit Cartman, quit saying HELLA!
I heard a rumor that the 93's had a bad hinge, and that the pin in them bent and could be replaced, or something along those lines. Anyone ever hear of anything like that? Might have to give it the widebody2 treatment! Thanks....
