Alright MJers. I knew I had a hole in the frame left rear. Today i started poking around the hole and found 2 more. Needless to say, I was pissed. Partly my fault.:p I should of checked the whole frame with a hammer before buying it..but I was too excited. hehe.

Looks pretty bad. Good thing you didn't go wheeling before you saw it. That could've been bad.

Easiest fix: get it taken care of and leave the rust belt as quickly as possible!

Seriously though, look through the whole frame and get it fixed. Then look into applying POR15 to the whole thing.

So here is the new and improved! Now I have to remove the rest of the rust and coat it. Little late on the post but I was busy putting new lock cylinders in...
