Good work. I have something very similar on my mazda b2200.

That spot on the driver's side, over the rear wheel rots out from the diff venting into the frame. Any condensation (or water) that gets into the diff steams out to that area and rots. Extend the diff vent tube up to the gas filler area.

Thanks, yeah sucks they are notorious for rusting out but have to keep them alive. Do you still have yours?

I hate rubberized undercoating. I use Fluid Film. It won’t trap water underneath

i like to use the east wood rust inhibitor with the tube and 360 degree nozzle inside the unibody. Then i paint the outside with it as well then usually do a coat of hard bed liner spray from advanced auto if im going for the textured factory look the stuff dries hard and holds up for a long time, if im not going for the factory look. then i just wash the under side after each salt snow and ive never seen any rust come back on anything i fixed i also use that spray galv weld thru primer. Now on like a daily driver id def recommend fluid film but if its something you are guna be welding stuff to and cutting into it alot idk if i would put anything like that on it because you would be constantly trying to clean it all off before welding ect

Do you have to do that with no gas in the tank or is that not an issue
@preludedudesi5208 Жыл бұрын
I used a gas welder, you can use fluxcore no problem, and if you want a good pretty weld fluxcore with gas will give it a good strong weld

Im about to do one here in the next week i will upload a video on it this time if you wana check it out. Mine is rusted at the same place on the pass side back near the tank area on unibody rail
