My 2016 has done this. I had it repaired 2 months ago, of course they would not guarantee the work, but I thought it would at least get me a year or two. $2k and 2 months later it has started bubbling out where it had been prior. I'd been ahead to of spent another 2k and had the bed side replaced. Live and learn.
Not really. The foam the factory uses is designed to keep anything out of it. Obviously it doesn’t work but I’ve seen trucks that were rust proved from day one and they still rot. Unless you get that foam out of there there’s nothing that will stop it.
That foam has killed many truck wheel arches over the years. Every brand. I wonder if they will find a new way of either blocking or draining moisture.
Hey kyle i have a 2016 f350 thats doing this and needs fixed the correct way and painted would also like the bed rails replaced other than that its in good shape id like to link up
Excellent work. I have a 2006 Dodge 2500 which has the small start of that starting on both rear wheel wells. Do you know if they sell a inner well piece for my truck. Thank you
Kyle how did you repair and treat the outer piece of sheet metal? It looks like it was rusted all the way through in some areas. Is there a product that you can put on each side that will encapsulate the rust and make it impossible to pop back through?
How much would something like this cost to do. I just noticed on my 1999 f250 a little bubbling starting on the one wheel well like this. I’d love to get this done.
@@zanestroud639you wouldn't use 3m expanding foam in this case. It would expand before you could get the wheel house installed. You could use 3m NVH foam, but that could burn during welding. Its best to leave it without foam and cavity wax it after paint.
Anybody know where to get the specs on where spot welds are, and where to cut on a vehicle? I need to replace the outer, middle, and inner rocker on my 97 Ram
Where are you located? I have an 06 F 150 doing the same thing. The truck has 108k on it and is very very clean. I dont have 100k for a new truck. No one in Missouri does body work, they all want to put an OEM from ford bedside on it. I would drive the truck there and fly back and call me when it's done. How much for the same repair and get the foam out of both sides?
Putting new bedside on is the proper way of repairing rust. Blue collar Kyle is an awesome body man, but that repair will only last 6 months before bubbling back up. Can't stop rust once it stops
Went to a local body shop Friday and asked for a estimate and he told me straight up no just put a flat bed on it and walked back into the shop that guy was a total ahole
Try living in Canada. My 16 is rotted through. Never ever buying another Ford. Thst glue is also in the hood and door seams btw. Even more fun is the fact dealers will line x beds on every truck as an upsell then you find out the repair u did here is 7000 bucks due to the bed Liner etc
Duraglass would only be if you ground the steel too thin and needed to reinforce it. No where on a can of dura glass does it say it prevents rust. As long as you get ALL the rust off it should not rust again, at least in that area. The repair he made was fine and what any other bodyman that knows what he is doing, would do.
@@jonathanyates5198 no sir, they are not temporary... Any quality bodyshop will give a lifetime warranty on all the their work. Lifetime does not mean temporary dude. Maybe the work you do would only last 6 months but real bodymen are on a different level than you. You just don't know what you're talking about.
@@zanestroud639 lol that is funny. The only lifetime warranty that issued on rust repair is on full panel replacement. Filler soaks moisture up like a sponge unless you use fiberglass filler, then it will still eventually bubble back up. I live in Virginia and have repaired other people's filler jobs over rust holes, it does not last until the affected metal is cut out and new metal is put back in its place. You are the one that has no clue what they are talking about

Great video, great step by step esp with tool use. Thanks.
Thank you!
Man, that was a great job. thanks
a 3 year old truck here in eastern canada could have rust poping like that :O
Fluid film or wool wax from day one will greatly help this issue
Not really. The foam the factory uses is designed to keep anything out of it. Obviously it doesn’t work but I’ve seen trucks that were rust proved from day one and they still rot. Unless you get that foam out of there there’s nothing that will stop it.
yep...my '08 superduty is rusting in that exact spot.
That foam has killed many truck wheel arches over the years. Every brand. I wonder if they will find a new way of either blocking or draining moisture.
Super detail.
Here in buffalo that truck would have been in the junk yard 7 years ago from all the rot...
Ontario. Trying to save my 2.

Well done video Kyle. As are all your others :-).
Wow this guy really cares about his truck to spend money on a repair like this
Mavy
NO! It's the proper way !
I would had just sold the pos and bought a gm
@@edgarbaeza3151 lol GM! Lololol
@@dodgeramsport01 rinse and repeat every three years if you live in salt country
@@danfarris135 not if done properly
Do they make plastic inner wheel wells so they don’t rust?
But good video on what to do if this comes into my shop to avoid replacing bed side
WTF
FOAM, rust promoter, crazy
Great Video
Excellent work. I have a 2006 Dodge 2500 which has the small start of that starting on both rear wheel wells. Do you know if they sell a inner well piece for my truck. Thank you
What would a repair on each side cost. On each side?
Took mine to a shop to get a quote they said just get a new bed.
What was done to the outer panel, you didn't show any repair besides grinding out the holes.
He welds them closed, just pay attention
Thanks! Do more rust repair videos. 😬
Kyle how did you repair and treat the outer piece of sheet metal? It looks like it was rusted all the way through in some areas. Is there a product that you can put on each side that will encapsulate the rust and make it impossible to pop back through?
Where did you find that inner liner piece?
What kind of primer do you use?

Did you ever get that repaired? If so what was the cost?
What did you put in place of the foam? A sealer or panel bond?
Nothing
You can buy expanding foam from 3m that would be used in the case. Idk if he did it or not but that's would should be done
@@zanestroud639you wouldn't use 3m expanding foam in this case. It would expand before you could get the wheel house installed. You could use 3m NVH foam, but that could burn during welding. Its best to leave it without foam and cavity wax it after paint.
@@samg5543 I guess that makes sense. I wonder if the foam is for moisture or sound deadening?
@@zanestroud639 probably for vibration damping but not a good idea by Ford. Panel bond would have been a better choice if anything.
Do you a have an idea on the cost of a repair like this? My f150 wheel well is starting to bubble..
Around me you would be around 1K per side
Ditto
Anybody know where to get the specs on where spot welds are, and where to cut on a vehicle? I need to replace the outer, middle, and inner rocker on my 97 Ram
Spot welds are easy to see

Putting new bedside on is the proper way of repairing rust. Blue collar Kyle is an awesome body man, but that repair will only last 6 months before bubbling back up. Can't stop rust once it stops
Plus a new truck is no where near $100k. King ranch power stroke will cost $80k but that is to of the line. Looking at more like $40k for a new truck
Or get you a take off bed from Texas
Brazillll🇧🇷🇧🇷
Who in their right mind would put foam there….. holy ship.
Shame on you Ford for putting all that moisture laden foam in all the Ford trucks.
Same crap Ford did on my E-350 van in the rocker below the sliding side door, filled it with foam so it rotted out. How stupid.

What in gods name are you doing ??? Rust ??
Your supposed to put duraglass over the rust it will just bubble out

@@zanestroud639 That will bubble back up within 6 months
Any body man, and I'm sure blue collar Kyle knows, that the only way to stop rust is to replace the panel. Any kind of repair like this is temporary
