[QUOTE="MTF, post: 1802777, member: 499"] That's some serious rust rot and pure negligence. I daily drove in NYC through salt, brine and sand for 12 years and only have slight surface rust spots that I do need to wire brush and paint. I fortunately had a garage warm enough to keep a garden hose running during the winter and was able to hose the truck and undercarriage when I got home. Froze my ass off doing it but was well worth it. Now, once I'm done with remodeling my new home in Florida the Raptor will get all the TLC she deserves. You will never know it was a Northeastern truck. FYI, the Raptor has a dual walled frame, that's why Ford allows jumping, I believe to 5 feet in height. That spot you're showing is a pretty critical area and you're missing one wall already. How's the back side of the frame? If it was mine, I would get that properly repaired by a shop that can do frame repairs. One that will have a frame straightener and jig it up and weld it right. When I get a chance, I'll take a pic of mine or someone else will have a pic of that area. [/QUOTE]
