I think its funny how many people have opinions on things without ever doing tests or experiments. Thanks for being one of the few who actually find REAL answers.

Loved this video and thank you for the follow up. Did the same on my 05 Toyota Tundra. Used needle scaler, air impact, wire wheel on angle grinder, pressure wash, phosphoric acid (kleen strip concrete metal prep) (PS do not rinse phosphoric acid) Rustoleum rust reformer, then flat black rustoleum. It's a frame in the rust belt... It's a war...Of course we have to keep going back for touch ups. We could nuke... pull the box and cab everything off the frame, sandblast, stop at the bank then epoxy coat, but if we had we still would have to do periodic maintenance. The way we did it, rust does not gain ground and our truck will be good for as long as we have them. Matthew 6:19, 20-Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where rust corrodes, but in heaven where rust doth not corrode.

Watched the original video and thought I would like to see how that hods up after a few years. Thanks for the update, good job

To get rust of the boxed in part of the frame you can get a cheap drain auger, tie on a few chain links, put the auger in there and connect a drill. It chips the rust off pretty well! I’m using oil coating inside my frame.

Great going, with how expensive vehicles are getting. We've gotta make what we have last.

[odelldickey]

This was a good informative video and I appreciate your time in making it. We’ve got to keep up good maintenance and make our trucks last for the long haul. Keep up the good work.

[JackGortons]

Perfectly well? Good clear & detailed. Thanks!

I like Rust-Oleum high performance red primer, for rusty metal, people always have negative things to say but never any proof or reasoning, it's worked well for me, I'll keep using it lol great video thanks

You can only ever do what you can do to help frames in conditions like this. As long as you fight the fight you'll be OK, only offering this as suggestion, no criticism at all. 1) Use an anti salt wash in spring and give the whole frame a good cleaning with it and touch up any bare rusty spots. The wash kills off the chemical action that causes the rust. 2) In autmn before the salting begins again spray the whole thing with chainsaw bar oil or other oil based protection that can be washed off if necessary including the inside of the rails etc. Good work keeping it on the road and good luck.

people on the internet always bugging, completely unrelated, but i crashed my old dodge dakota bent the frame in 2 places i pulled it straight as much as i could with a chain and a pole and putting the truck in reverse, hurt my neck straightened the frame a bit. and drove the truck problem free for over 3 years. i got rid off it because i blew 2 rear axles in it from doing a bunch of burnouts.

$80.00 in product and probably 8 hours of Physical Labor saved your Ranger for another 2 Years.
GOOD JOB!

[GordonTurnerpark]

I swear by Fluid Film. My Ranger is 13 years old and still has factory finish on bolt heads. Frame is solid. Shackles? Awesome. I’m in Ohio.

Just a heads up that Rustoleum came out with a new "Rust Reform and Seal" Rubberized, rust dissolving paint for vehicles that's been getting rave reviews everywhere. It is much more effective at dissolving rust, keeping rust away, and the finish is much more durable than paint.

Wire brush. Clean and degrease. Owterol rust inhibitor. Red oxide then two top coats

[jeremyrock]

Your frame repair is fine. I wouldn’t waste my time repainting just oil coat it. Brush painting with rust oleum does last longer but is a pain in the ass to do.

[buzby]

I say that performed decent. Fair amount of rust showing up again. I’d bet if you used a lanolin coating every year you’d fully stop the rust.

[SusanMcIlwain-db]

In Canada an Oil Spray is sometimes used .It will seep into joints and cracks that paint cannot go . it woks good But just like any thing else if it is in a spot that gets hit with water or dirt it must be replaced in those areas.There are shops that spray oil for $100.00

100 yars ago they rsut proff everything for life...
as a amchinsit i learnt it from a 87 years guy..
but if i tell chemical companies will go banrupt.

you will never have rust anymore under you car.

[moparnut]

Not bad considering you didn't remove the body or bed to get to the frame $80 bucks not bad the frame repair was completely adequate maybe next time paint and then later treat with fluid film.
