Gen1 Window problems

My windows don't work like they should. You have to push down on the back of them while rolling them down, rolling them up is fine. I know it's the slides or rollers or something but where could I get those kind of parts?

Pull the door panel off and check the regulator connections and the connection from the window to the regulator. There are a half dozen bolts and if some are loose the window might act like you are describing. While you're in there, lubricate all of the joints and the gear.

Yep.

Also might have to see if the rubber lip where the window goes down that could be causing it to get stuck? (if it is seeming to get stuck).

I've use white grease. Not sure if thats good but it seemed to work a bit.
