As promised, I boarded a plane in Mass a few weeks ago and landed in Austin Texas, where I proceeded to spend the next 13 hours looking at Jeeps and ultimately buying an 02. Full story post/video to come.
Now that the wife and I drove it back to the Northeast I'd like to see what you guys think about keeping the frame and body free of rust.
I own a first gen Taco so I know about plugging frame holes where wheel spray enters frame channels, wire wheeling and chassis paint and liberal use of fluid film. But what should I know about TJs specifically?
What should be covered? What products do you guys use? Do you wash out frame rails? What do you do to the body mount rails? Whats up with that rocker rust under the driver side door? What causes that?
