Alaska Rust vs. Mazda truck

Customer can't figure out why his old Mazda truck wanders all over the road. A quick run up the lift and.... PRESTO! Swiss cheese frame!

Just be glad you didnt stand under it lol

[@Natd0gsef]

If that truck was any higher that could have been real bad

[@TheSamplebridge]

my buddies at Neutral Drop did a nissan pickup that split right there. though they did reverse and 1st gear clutch dumps and fatigued that frame till it pretty much was a dump truck

[@zaddy83]

lol must be a Kenai Peninsula truck

[@samuelw.3992]

No frame probably under there😂 the whole truck was just kinda hanging out

Mazda's from these eras rusted to dust. Happened to my dads Protege in MN.

Never been there but do I understand they they salt the roads there in the winter?

Dang!!!

This happened to my dads 99 Tacoma

Oh no! Where at? Michigan? Alaska? Somewhere else where rust is a battle?

[@sorrowcat2724]

@@spiriteddrivesunreliablecars I’m here in the southernmost point of New England. So yea, rust is a huge problem here. If the road salt doesn’t get you, the ocean and it’s breeze will.

@@sorrowcat2724 Ohhhh ok, yes that's what I understand. Oof

[@culturemaster9639]

no frame ???

[@spiriteddrivesunreliablecars]

Rusted into oblivion

[@LYC_44]

Y’all can weld frames there right?

[@monkeyearcheese420]

Not if it's all swiss cheesed

[@martinobunny1655]

[@JayRowMay.]

Shut yo mouth.

@@randysgut3214 They definitely are. I just turned down a job on a Buick road master this morning because the Frame isn’t safe anymore. I don’t see these rust issues on the dodge frames I work on though.

[@greaniebeaniez3070]

@@waterloo123100 that's because the dodges blow their engines or tannies before the frame rusts! lol
