    I purchased this truck a few months ago. Within a week i had a co worker point out the bed was leaning toward the cab. A few weeks later we got under the truck to find out what was going on. We noticed alot of rust. I looked on line to see how to fix it and found alot of people were dealing with the same issue. I decided to get some sheet metal and weld it to the frame.

    Frame cross member behind the cab is rusted through. I have owned vehicles in "salt" states and not had the frame rust out. This should not be considered a "wear item". This can lead to a failure whereby the fuel tank falls down leading to a high risk of fire. This was found during a replacement of the brake line (3rd set) assembly and removal of the truck bed.

The factory mounted tow hitch literally broke completely off of the frame due to the amount of rust that was built up around the welds while i was towing my camper, luckily i had just made it home from a trip from camping when this occurred. I can literally peel off 1/8" thick pieces of rust at a time, the…
