    It’s so frustrating living in the “rust belt & suspenders” region of the north. No matter how much effort a guy puts in to rust-proofing and preventing, it will STILL rot to nothing within a decade. I went through this exact same process on a 96 Ram I picked up that was 100% clean and rust-free. Painting and coating and oiling inside and over and under everything. Spent a couple months on & off getting it all done. And within 3 years it was showing rust in the typical areas. I’ve come to understand that if you drive a vehicle regularly, in the winter, in this area, there is nothing you can do to stop that rust. Slow it down maybe, but you can’t stop it (short of plastic panels).
    ** First they sand the roads, to effectively sandblast the rockers and wheel wells. Then they salt heavily to get some surface rust going. Then comes the mag chloride (liquid de-icing chemical) that can penetrate into areas that the salt can’t get into, and also soaks into any of that foam & fabric sound deadening material & of course the carpet & padding. Hooray for the super-salt north country.

      Been applying fluid film twice a year to my 06 duramax, every single year since 2008. Has little to no rust on it. Seen it work first hand in the mining industry, totally different than Krown or other products as its more of a wax than an oil. I believe its actually lanolin which is derived from sheep. Only thing I’d use in northern Ontario.

      and even a 2010 car can be so rusted out the rear crossmember can fall off because there is nothing holding it to the car anymore.

  • @David-yi1fp
    @David-yi1fp 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Whenever you run into trouble with a gap that's too big, it's perfectly acceptable to take a piece with the same contour and make a sleeve that your new part will lay on top of. That way you get a more soled repair without overheating the metal and causing it to shrink AND you aren't overheating the metal and work hardening as well as changing the properties of it with too much heat and creating a spot that will rot in the end. When you are done with paint and everything, use a cavity wax and tube that will corrosion protect from the inside forever.

    I just find this funny. I have a '00 Silverado, almost 190k miles. Spent it's whole life in NC. The clear coat is gone, the previous owner dented the bed side down to bare metal and it won't rust. Underneath you would swear it isn't more than 5 years old! Might be some dirt, but NO rust! Not even on the original exhaust.
    Based on the condition of the paint I'd say it's never been indoors and it hasn't even been washed in many years.

    Nice work Rich! I did basically the same rebuild on my old 1979 square body Chev in 2004. Instead of using paint on the inside surfaces, I used Rustoleum cold galvanizing compound. Great stuff, and available almost everywhere. After paint I oiled the truck every year and when I sold it last fall it still had very little rust. Drove it every day year-round right here in good old Ontario too! Good luck on the build. Love your channel.

  • @orangesforall2053
    @orangesforall2053 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Rich, if you don’t mind the look I would really recommend some mud flaps. I have had them on my truck since new and it has saved my 03 from having the rockers eaten apart. It also saves your cab corners and floor. I also really recommend wool wax, it is non-toxic and safe for the environment. It also lasts much longer than regular under-oil. I would also not even paint the frame, all that painting does is trap moisture and block the under-oil from contacting the metal and sealing out water and oxygen. I would just hit it with a wire wheel and spray on some wool wax black, it also comes in a 5 gallon bucket so you have plenty. The gun that applies it the best is the kelsport pro. Also wool wax can be applied right on top of rust and it makes prep work a breeze, just knock off the loose stuff. Hope that helps! It should last forever if you do that.

    @nathanielheidemann3112 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Rich, not trying to pick apart the build, but avoid the rubberized coating on surfaces exposed to possible damage. A stray rock could break the coating, cause moisture to build up underneath and then the coating traps the moisture to the metal rather than keep it out. Just some food for thought.

    Last comment, I promise. On all the unseen part you want to really rust proof..POR-15 is probably the best option you could ever go with. It has to be top coated on the outside of the vehicle because it has no UV protection built in but the any untreated metal would pretty much rot off where you stop coating. That's how good of a product it is.

It was notched out for the rear shock and axle tube. I thought it was a pretty good idea. And don't feel bad about the cab and box purchase.

    8:10 no if you angle it you have chances to blow up the blade... I did that while doing leaf springs It blew up on me 3 times the third time it actually swung around and acut my hand right to the bare bone.
    Keep your blade as straight as you can...

    question Rich.. does seam epoxy not work / hold up for you in the cold / salt / rust belt? that would be easier and help to keep thing water tight.

    How do they like those new PPS cups? We were using the old ones, and was just told that 3M are discontinuing them. We are gonna use the rest of the old ones, but then gonna use the new ones. Not a fan of the Sata cups because of having to use a vent on the top, forgetting to open it or close it sucks.

    Rich, regarding the 'perpendicular' angle of the angle grinder. Check out Fitzee Fabrications on TH-cam and see Tony's Cut and Butt method. It makes splicing sheet metal much easier. Incidentally, Tony uses and angle cut on his angle grinder to get a nice tight seam, opposite to what you suggest.

    • @DEBOSSGARAGE

      The thickness of the blade is about the thickness of the steel, so if the steel is laying on top, its the perfect amount removed once the old stuff is out of the way.
