I appreciate it lol. It's a ton of work and it makes me want to tear my hair out most of the time lol. But it'll be worth it in the end lol.Well, you definitely get a nod from me regarding your dedication haha. I'll never have anything that wild.

very cool. THanks!i will include pics of the torx boxes, in most cases the front of the box is ok , yours look ok from pics. what i did is cut where the torx boxes go down in size see pic with my finger showing it, the first pic is looking at the torx box from front to rear, you can see where it was cut and i installed the 1x3 tubing inside the torx boxView attachment 27690 View attachment 27690 View attachment 27691
i por 15 the chassis and fluid film, the body while off i rhino lined the complete bottom and the complete interiorWhat did you paint it with after,por15 or chassis saver,etc. Is that undercoating after sprayed on,Krown etc?
nothing but fluid film inside , then this weekend i will use the cans of expandable spray foam, spray it in every hole in the frame , let it expand and cut anything off that protrudes , that way the salt and crap get in there to rot it out againLooks fantastic mike.I am glad I stumbled across this build.I bought mine a month ago and have only cut the bottom from my frame. Can't believe there were no drain holes.Going to work my way up from the bottom. Nice long winter project and probably then some.Did you use fluid film on the inside of the frame over the clean and bare metal or coat the inside with anything first?
I dunno about this... that is open cell foam, and can hold moisture. You might be better off with east wood internal frame coating.nothing but fluid film inside , then this weekend i will use the cans of expandable spray foam, spray it in every hole in the frame , let it expand and cut anything off that protrudes , that way the salt and crap get in there to rot it out again

i hear ya, i seen the eastwood build rust under the coating after time also, so im tossed between the two. maybe a little more research before i proceed. thanks,Mike I wish I can sway you away from using the expandable foam.
I have a trail buddy that I helped his rig restore it with the foam sealing plugging every hole of his frame.
BAD IDEA. 6 years later, it's really a BAD IDEA. It attracted and trapped all the moist inside.
If I were you, Eastwood and leave it open. I used POR-15 on mine and left it open. I go for a thorough under chassis manual power wash every after winter.
