Sliding salon windows on a 67’

Looking for advice on opening salon sliding windows. I have scrubbed channels, vacuumed channels and siliconed all areas, inside and out; do not want to force open for now. It appears they have never been opened/exercised in many years. Inside screens slide very well.jh

I heard of guys using a hydraulic lift and wedging a 2/4 and raising the frame about 1/8” or less to take the pressure off.

suction cups. make sure you are trying to move the right window, one is held stationary by a small block of wood

Try to lift the glass up. If you can get it to lift, it should slide.

Thanks for the suggestions. It is the rear window- suction cups would be great, if I can find two good ones.
