    Best pic I got of what I can see under there. Just haven’t had time to get it apart yet. You can see it built up though.

    I haven't yet, but I wanna get a guy to water blast mine. Sand works, but if a guy ain't careful you will loose every seal. Soda works well but you need to seriously neutralize it and clean well. Dont ask how I know. Por15, or chassis saver both work great. But I recommend putting paint over it. If it sees the slightest uv rays it gets discolored and turns whiteish. If you spray it wear a mask, and rubber gloves. Do not allow it to dry on anything you dont want it on. Like skin. That rail looks like it will come right back.

    That frame is still mostly black, lol. Most of our trucks older than 2-3 years are mostly brown frames.
