So I am wanting to flush out all the rust and dirt from the inside of my frame rails and was wondering if anyone has had any success with this. My plan is to flush out the insides and I’m going to pour a bunch of rust converter inside and drive around to spread it out and finally drill a few small holes in the bottom of the frame to allow future water to drain out. My frame is in good shape rust wise and I want to keep it that way because I live in the rain / snow/ salt belt.

I have some chunks,someone made a tool that goes on a drill,been looking for the plans on the web,still can’t find it.
 
You should definitely search the forum. There are several threads about how to do this well.

More like SPILL it out. I taped up every hole I could find and it still poured out near the front and rear seams. I didn't even drive it. I cleaned mine out with the car wash pressure hose and used a flexible magnet extension to get the chunks out. Eastwood internal frame coating (4 cans) after everything dried out.
