I lifted the truck on a hydraulic lift to find the source of a rattle thats usually a heat shield that has come loose but to my surprise I also found the frame of this truck has literal holes rotted through with the respective support structures for the transmission/transfer case, fuel tank and front leaf spring attachment points. In some places the frame has rotted away to maybe 40% of the frame is still intact. Very dangerous. The affected areas are not visible from outside the vehicle the damage is only visible from underneath. From outside it looks like typical surface rust coming through the undercoating. But this is far from typical
