Rust free my ass. That whole passenger side frame rail is gonna go. Also, titled as a "rolling" frame, but doesn't come with wheels or tires...How the FUCK is it a rolling frame then. Stupid people suck.

You should have seen the general dumbassery I had to deal with when trying to find my frame.

For example:
"98 TJ Frame - Rust free besides one small hole by the rear leaf spring mount" - ????

It’s already been patched

This just goes to show how different people interpret things so differently.

This screams of stupidity, but maybe some idiot truly believes that is “rust free”.

I am amazed someone hasn't started producing replacement frames. Maybe they have. The warm climate folks have it so much nicer.

There is a company that does reproduce frames. I'd prefer to stay away from them since they make aftemarket modifications a little harder. You can overcome the issues, but why start with a more expensive frame that will cause more work down the line.

I saw a TJ with an aftermarket frame when I visited Rubitrux in Boone, NC. I could tell from a mile away that it had an aftermarket frame which is why I walked over to the Jeep. They look well built but I'm not sure I'd like one under my Jeep for the reasons mentioned above.

Throttle down kustoms makes aftermarket frames. Way spendy, but you can get them hot dip galvanized. Also, the steel is a full 3/16" thick sidewall, so a bit stronger than OEM.

I agree with @jodomcfrodo though. Find a clean OEM frame to prevent future headaches.
