The hatch lift on my 22zx seems to be binding just at either ends of the ram. When I first start to open in and when its almost fully opened. And the same in reverse. There is a zerk fitting on the bottom near the motor that I've greased plenty. It made it only slightly better after doing this, very slightly. At the top of the ram is a plastic collar that the seems to be wearing and causing this horrible sound. The motor has a sticker that says Aculift MQ347 on it. Can I replace a part or rebuild this thing. I dont wanna have to buy a new one.

I am not sure. Mine works fine, but when anyone chimes in they could confirm if this is the slowest opening hatch in the world...Mine is geared to open so slowly its hard to watch...
