Ok guys i am going to bring this up bec. i know alot of us guys/gals have rust problems and i havnt seen it brought up on this thread so here i will. So like most of you i have rust on the bottoms of my doors. is there really any way to fix it with out havein to replace the doors also i was thinking maybe just knok all of the rust out and prime it then i was going to get it line xed around the bottom all the way around but i was just going to fill in the whole with line x if they will do it like layer it some what. any other ideas

 

For prevention you can pour some oil down in the door. Block up the drains as best you can, pour some used motor oil in and then drain it. Do it at night when the neighbors are sleepin and carry a rag for a few days to wipe up the drips but after that you don't have to worry about rust in there for years.

Once it's to late, cut the rust out and weld a repair panel in it's pace and re-paint. What it takes for a repair panel depends on what's damaged. A new piece of sheet metal cut to fit for the lower door, a new door skin or a whole new door if the bottom is rusted out.

 

its just the ;lower parts of oll my doors id say 3 inches up from the seam all the way across the bottom including the seem

 

i pulled the door panel's off.they have very little paint on the inside of the door.it's got some kind of lithium grease in the bottom.i washed out the grease and poured paint into the bottom of the door's.then i got a brush and started spreading the paint around.to me it look's like it rot's from the inside of the door's.i also keep adding paint on the outside underneath near the door seal along the seam.i've seen plenty of ram's with rotted door's and wanted to prolong it as long as i could.

 

yea it sucks that they do that i think i will knock the rust out and maybe form me up somthing crazy i dont know

what we did in the body shop was used this stuff por 15 put it in a bottle and drip it down the door it is a rust converter not just a cover up i would use this por 15 than line x over the top of it its what i use on all my stuff works great for me ps buy small cans if u buy a big one and don't use it all you ll never get the lid back off in one piece http://www.por15.com/whatispor15.asp
