Just an observation.
Over here in UK we use a tremendous amount of salt and other nasty stuff to try and keep ice off the roads during winter -it makes a disgusting corrosive paste that gets everywhere.
Unfortunately I dont have the luxury of chauffeur driven transport so have to use my own beloved SSR all through the winter.
Yesterday I noticed the dreaded rust....
Interestingly it is in two identical places - all the paint is now missing from the two box section re-enforcers under each door on the main frame rails - I assume this is where the runners / side steps bolt through??
Very light surface rust but no paint left at all??
Now cleaned, neutralised and covered in underbody protector paint......
