Welcome to the club my friend. I'm gonna pay a body shop guy $40/hr, a couple hours a week to take care of all the rust that's there and protect what hasn't been infected. Sucks...
Just had this done today.
I bought an '01 with some significant rust on the back half of the undercarriage. The fuel lines look like they were soaking in acid. Does anyone have a rough guess of what that'll cost me? And maybe even the fuel filler assembly?
This isn't something I'm willing to try and do myself.
Also...
After all those major mods, I feel a little inadequate with what I'm about to share but here goes.
Plugs
Wires
PCV Valve
PCV Grommet (Yeah I had to fish mine out too)
LED Tag Lights
O2 Sensor
Wednesday will be some frame welding and try to get rid of some rust on the rear axle.
