In my opinion I think the best thing to do is oil the frame inside and out with an oil that sticks well, Fluid Film didn't last a winter on my truck.

I agree, and once all my welding is done, I will be using an undercoat gun to shoot some heavy oil inside the frame! After seeing a thread about the AC drain dripping on the frame, I checked that today, and found that it rusted a hole through the top where it drips, and rotted out the bottom directly below that! WTF Toyota?!
