it's not much, and it's mostly surface rust on the long, the jack post brace is worse... but the long is solid...
I'm thinking: grind/brush off all the rust and then ospho(or metal ready) and por-15 is that good enough for solid metal? or should I put a plate over it after that as an extra brace? let me know what you think... btw, when I took the rocker off, no less than a pound of DIRT fell out!! I know to clean this spot, but evidently the last guy forgot (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) Attached image(s) |

Agreed, crusty jack points are crap. But I'm talking about jack points that are repaired to solid. They quickly lift the whole side of the car and are secured by the square tubing that goes deep enough to solidly secure and anchor things. I've never seen a factory jack kick out sideways. If you have actually experienced a factory jack kicking out and dropping a car while connected to a solid jack point, please share. If a scissors jack is more secure than a square tubing insert into the body, please explain and I'll be happy to simplify my frame rail!!! That would be nice! I just need to know that's from experience and not theory.
