Mission: DeRUST by Icemahn on Wed Jul 09, 2008 11:24 pm
When I bought my Fronty, it was somelike a rust bucket from all hidden areas, proves that it has been off roading before. Just want to make sure everything underneath is nice and intact before I join you guys for some serious off roading. I suppose the best way way to start is to de-rust this old guy and replace worn out parts. So, the saga begins......

Doesnt look that bad, but a good rub down and coating will pay you well in the long run 8)
