    Drivers side footwell rust - Where is the water coming from?

    Hi folks, I have rust in the driver side footwell as pictured. Luckily all of it is pretty thin so not major structural issues. It looks like the water was getting trapped under old sound deadening that had hardered and insulation under the carpet. What I can't figure out is where it's coming...

    Radiator support

    In the process of installing a new radiator and all the bolts are rusted/snapping. I’ve seen the metric overland kit that has all the bolts but is out of stock. Does anyone know of another source for the bolts besides the dealer?

    Considering a purchase….Too much rust?

    Hello! First post as I attempt to join the owners club. This ‘13 is for sale locally in the rust belt. It looks to have had rust prevention at one time but is now showing signs of underbody rust. Does this look salvageable if I immediately treat after purchase? Cheers!

    Do your due diligence

    Bought this "rust free, we don't salt roads in Colorado" 80. Didn't consider looking under the carpets, since it seemed really rust free compared to "out east" corrosion levels. Sadly it had several through body holes, front of both rear fenders and rear of another. Make sure you do your...

    Frame Weld- dumb question?

    Hey all, This may be a dumb question, so openly mock me if appropriate. I'm looking at a 2014 LX570 and got pictures of the undercarriage to check for frame rust. It looks clean, but I noticed a long weld seam on the frame and that feels... odd? Would love someone smarter than me to take a...

The rust on the back is pretty bad, per picture. However in front of the rear driveshaft there isnt...

    Rust Prevention?

    Hey guys, Got a 2001 LC and would like to prep the undercarriage against rust. Winters are not severe in Mid-TN but roads occasionally salted. Any undercoat/spray products recommended for a Southern truck? Experience with shops or coatings? Frequent washes enough? Thanks!
