Hello, I am sorta new to this board and have a LX450 from Florida. The truck is rust free, I live in MN and the salt that is used on the road may damage the rig. Anyone know a cheap and easy way to prevent this from happening? I have heard of applying WD40 to the undercarriage. Any one try this? Any help is appreciated.

I use either hydraulic fluid or ATF, whatever is on sale. I put it in a paint gun and get it all over everything metal I can see, and into any nook and cranny I can find. The truck drips for days and is really messy underneath, but no rust and the metal looks really good. I'll take getting REALLY dirty when wrenching over breaking every other bolt cuz its rusted in any day.

Oil up any exposed parts like Erratic said.
Have it professionally sprayed.
Por-15 get to brushing.

Get a dedicated winter beater, you can slow it down but the the salt will win in the end and destroy your cruiser, it's only a mater of time.
