rust

I bought a 97 wrangler a couple months ago and I just found that both rear body mounts are rusted out. (I will add that the entire rest of the Jeep has been repaired where previous rust was) I wanna replace the whole rear cross sill. Does anyone have any write ups or videos of the process? I...

Hey guys. A rust spot on my tj rubicon has appeared since last winter and has grown since then. It’s in the back passenger quarter panel. I pull back the arch cover, reach my hand behind the rust area and feel the metal is squeaky clean back there. I assume this is because the tub is double...

Just picked this 2018 Unlimited JK Sport up from Carvana. Online pictures didn't show any of the rust on the paint or underneath the car. Wondering if I should return ASAP or if this is an easy fix before I miss the return window. Ignore the dirt on the driveway, that was from a landscaping...

in order to get my jeep inspected I need to do some rust repairs. I already completed the frame and it's just the tub that's the issue at this point. It has some pretty massive rust holes, especially near the center body mounts where there's basically nothing left. It also has a a few holes on...

Hey everyone, after changing my oil today I noticed some of the rust I had with my jeep has gotten way worse to the point where I don't think it's safe to drive. I was wondering if anyone here has had any of this fixed (torque boxes) & a driver side floor pan. The torque box on the passenger...

Hey all, I'm trying to see the extent of this rust and how much time this frame has left on it. It's rusting from the inside-out and has large, thin chunks of rusted frame falling from the walls (as seen from picture 6). The reason why I ask if this question is because I was offered 9k for the...

Pictures are never perfect, but I'd appreciate opinions on anything that jumps out at you.

My Jeep has never been exposed to road salt in it's life. It's definitely getting a treatment before seeing winter in Wisconsin, it's just a matter of where. Can anyone speak to their experience with Zeibart rust prevention and undercoating? Alternatively there is a local business in my area...

Hello Everyone, I was looking at a 2003 Wrangler X with 60K miles (4.0L, manual, soft top, no lift) that overall looks pretty good and drives well. From what I've read, I understand that rust is the main thing to be concerned about so I took some pictures underneath the Jeep. I don't have...

Hey all, Current JK owner and looking to purchase a 2004 Rubicon. The rig is super clean and obviously has rust. I hit the frame with a hammer and it seems solid, but I am far from an expert and don’t know what I really should be looking for. I attached a bunch of photos, is this something...

Attached are photos of my frame, I purchased the jeep a month ago, and strangely it seems to have only gotten worse. What are the potential solutions I have for this? Frame swap? New body + frame swap? Thanks!

Trying to purchase my first wrangler for a relatively low price. I know rust is a problem on jeeps but I don't know how bad this one is. Was hoping you guys can tell me how bad and how to treat it.

FF replied to one of the YT comments and apparently Napa will be the first to offer FF Black. They state they're shipping now to dealers and stocking warehouses, and it will be available soon. Don't know about y'all but I'll be getting about 5 cans if they're available. I just did the inside...

So, I'm not really looking to "rustproof" my car. I live in California so I don't really run into rust issues here. I have a good amount of surface rust and I just want to make it look nice (make it look back to its factory form). Can I use something like...

Starting in about 2018 I was desperately looking for a project. My friends and I had been on a University Baja SAE team, and after finishing college one of my buddies decided to make his own, more powerful Baja car. While that project was going on I figured it would be nice to have a reliable...

Wanted to see if this kind of rust is something I could fix myself or if a shop should do it.

peace all! i’m new here + I’m trying to figure out the best route to take with my baby, Big Bertha. it’s been a year since I’ve had her, she’s my first car and I was extremely inexperienced when knowing what to look for upon purchase. I got news after an inspection the other day that frame is...

Hey everyone, I looked all over the internet and could not find a "replacement' patch panel or new brace, I believe its the transmission tunnel brace that the seats bolt to. I have attached photo. Whats the best way to have this repaired. I am on an island not in the US, so top notch...

Hi all, I've been searching for a pair of full doors for a long time and they all seem to be around $800 with shipping. I found this pair with rust near me and am going to pick them up tomorrow for $300. My question is, is the rust beyond repair? I'm going to repaint the doors anyway to moss...

Hey there everyone hope you're all well. I was wondering if anyone has ever tried using Cosmoline RP 342 as a frame coat? I've seen some videos about people using it and getting good rust prevention. If anyone has tried it, please tell us how it went, any tips, and whether it's worth the money...
