Just picked up another Runner('97) for an incredible price and am going to replace the shocks. This vehicle spent a lot of years up at Lake Tahoe driving around on salted roads and although the frame is in pretty good shape the other parts that weren't protected are pretty rusty, these being about the worst. I have a '98 I've been driving since 2003 that has no rust all so I'm just not familiar with how much is too much.
Should I just buy new springs or sand these down and repaint? Thanks.
