Quick fix Rust Repair on my Truck (Rocker and Cab Corners)

In this episode, I take my rocker rust out, and cover it with grease and undercoating, replacing it with a quick cover that will never rust. This solution is perfect for what I need it for, for nonstructural rust.

This is another reason I like you. Whether it's new fishing, fixing the canopy , outdoor- tailgate- rock cooking, improving the truck, reaching out to others for help or a good time. Or just tackling and doing it yourself. Great attitude for living, bud! Keep on truckin'.

Fascinating how home ownership means upkeep, no matter what the shape it takes.

@gibsonn14 3 жыл бұрын

I would suggest taking some white silicone and sealing the couple cracks on each side sothat water can't get all inside where you just cut out the rust. Looks like a good idea for rocker repair though

@Rboling4199 3 жыл бұрын

Great thinking, the silicone will also keep water from seeping through the cracks

@radicalgreek99 Жыл бұрын

The water will be trapped in between the walls

Looks great man! For the age of the truck, that’s honestly the best you can do. It’s not practical to pay $6000 for a 2011. Once your KZfaq channel really takes off you’ll be able to afford something newer and better! Keep on truckin man! Love your channel! 🤙🏼

A few cans of fluid film and the spray extension hose will seriously help slowdown vehicle rot, get every part the hose will reach into and do it while it's still warm outside so the stuff soaks into all the sheet metal seams. 50 or 60 bucks will buy you a few extra years before its rotted to bad if you do it right.

I do rust repair (via the best method) however that will give a little more time, its still going to help entrap moisture against the already compromised inner rocker. This might hurt you in the long run bc you wont see rust again until its way too late.

@universaljoint 2 жыл бұрын

True, but don't you think between the rust (as best he could) removal, and inhibitor (though I would have gone with a converter, paint, then inhibitor), and keeping it clean, he's not going to get a few years off of it? It's clearly not a truck he's going to have for 10 years.

5 years? maybe if it was fiberglass, but its plastic with zero seam sealer. just saying if he lives or visits wear its hot itll get brittle over time and itll start to rust when water gets trapped in the seams, and not to mention if he lives were they salt roads hes got a year or 2 tops and im leaning towards the year mark. Its a band-aid for a broken arm its just not gonna do much

For a used truck to keep for a couple of years, this looks like a pretty decent cover up. I mean, cleaning out rust versus cutting it out is almost impossible. I would have put in a rust convertor paint in those voids, but otherwise, this is a decent little job considering the alternative.

I replaced my rockers and cab corners in my 2005 F-150 Crew cab and man it wasn't fun. You can buy them fairly cheaply online, remove the old cab corners/rockers, then slap the new ones on with some metal adhesive and paint em' up. I probably put over 24 hours of work into it but It honestly looks so good you'd never notice they were replaced.

It actually is from water that is leaking in from the high mount brake light. If you look on your headliner you will see water spots around where the high mount brake light is. Pull it out and reseal it with some silicone. It is a common problem from 2004 up to 2014. I resealed it on both my trucks and have never had a problem since. My neighbour has the exact same truck as me and is is rusting out and mine is like new still.

Nice job. Your right the rust isn't gone, but from 10ft you don't look like one of those people. It was a beautiful shot with the sparks flying at the lens. Hopefully the marks on the lens will buff out. Back in the pre-internet... Hell this was the 70s, it was pre everything. The photographer that taught me camera basics said, "If you buy a lens get a UV filter for it." The filter will protect the front glass from dirt, scratches and it does remove a little of the blue haze in landscape shots. And they are under $10.

Now eventually a fellow KZfaqr that does welding/body repair will get a hold of you and you can do a co-op video and cut that rocker and cab corner out and weld it in properly. But for the time being that's a nice temp repair, though I would recommend some seam sealer to keep the crud out.
