submonkey Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 I've heard good things about a product called POR15, basically wire brush rust away then add this product and paint it will eliminate the cancer. I'm in spokane to and you can buy it at KC auto-paint supply. Jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monstaru Posted November 1, 2004 Author Share Posted November 1, 2004 the cancer has been very bad so far.......i am aware of por15.but in this case i am sure ther will need to be welding involved.i just do not know if others have had to weld there shock tower mounts again.it is only really bad in a couple of spots.needless to say she is not coming out of the garage until spring.....even with canopy.....

subiemech85 Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 crank your t-bars up and remove the shocks, that's what I HAD to do, also had to remove the rear 1/2 of the driveshaft, and the floor has a ski slope! wheelwels? we don't need no stinkin wheelwels!
