For jack post rust, what is typically done? I was thinking that the only way to really get in there is to cut the fender as shown.

Thomas, I replaced both of my jack posts and didn't bother to weld the top seam of the post "pyramid". Couple of justifications for that:

1. When the post is in use, the top seam is compressed against the long, so no need for a weld bead there.
2. You can't get in there to weld it anyway.

Seems to work OK that way.
