Frozen locks!

I had this problem last year, I just kind of lived with it, but it has started again and I would like to fix it.

I have an 83 Dodge D50 (kinda like a Ranger) it is old but in good shape but I guess the weatherstripping is not working that good anymore. My door locks freeze, which I can get open with some lock de-icer, but then the latch won't catch when I get in and try to shut it. The rod is getting stuck or something like that. Once the truck heats up, it closes. Before I take the door apart, I would like to try spraying something in the door, around the locks. I am looking for suggestions of what is best to spray in?

Thanks

Peter
