    Recently stumbled across your channel and really enjoying your builds. I like the attention to detail. Just wanted to share a tip that’s worked well for me, with the amount of effort you’re putting into rust resto. I live in a state with lots of snow and heavily salted roads as well, I hate rust so I also use fluid film and started with that same rustoleum paint but still had to re-do a lot of the paint annually- I swapped to Por-15 paint with a annual coat of fluid film and haven’t had to re-do the paint in years now.

    Yes it would cost more but would go a long way to keeping the original and replacement metal for becoming a repeat of what you started with.

My wife’s 2001 Tahoe took us 362,000 miles with a transmission swap and we sold to some friends who have driven it over 500,000 miles!!

      @WaldosWorld  Před 2 lety +1

      In my experience, it's basically no use painting a frame around here. The salt will always find a way to get to the metal. The only way to stop it is to coat it with oil every year 🤷‍♂️

  • @kritikopedo
    @kritikopedo Před 2 lety +3

    Hey dude I enjoyed the video; however, since you took everything apart and mostly down to bare metal, you could have brushed on some rust encapsulator, or sprayed on some raptor liner after a coat or two of self etch primer, or rusty metal primer (the brown one). Then later on you can still spray the undercarriage with wax, etc to protect from New England winters, but I doubt any rust will make it through that top layer of raptor. Truck undercarriage would look mint too!

    • @WaldosWorld
      @WaldosWorld  Před 2 lety +3

      Bed liners are super durable, but water and salt usually end up getting underneath it, and once it does, it causes the metal to rust even faster because it holds the water/salt there. In my experience, oil undercoating once a year is really the best way to keep water and salt away from the metal 👍

    I'm just wrapping up my summer project of doing the same thing on a 2003 Silverado Quadrasteer, that has spent it's life in Michigan, so there was plenty of rust. I purchased a box from the South and am just about done with the conversion for the Quadrasteer, as it has fiberglass bedsides, instead of metal. Fun project but I'm ready to be done with it. Great video, it helped remind me where a few components need to go back on.

    Best rust removing process video on YT, even though my car is totally unrelated to the GMC I still enjoyed watching it.

    Color me impressed on that bracket you cut freehand with the plasma torch. Seems like the editing is getting better and better each video. Well done!

    Great job on rust repair!! Those IR “rattle hammers” are worth their weight in gold. Love mine. Extruded aluminum is going to look amazing. Can’t wait to see it. Will you be building a skirted body? Thanks for sharing Waldo!! This is going to be another fun project.

    Awesome Build!! Such a cool project! I would float the idea of putting the Dually axle on this guy if you are making it a flatbed, that would be super cool!

    That's one thing I don't miss about living in Michigan is all the dang rust. I moved to northern Idaho several years ago and can find find rust free trucks all day long. The only down side is they have been driven up and down mountains and they are mechanically worn out but I would rather deal with that than the rust.

  • @stefanoferri1485
    @stefanoferri1485 Před 2 lety

    I have the same truck just with the 6.0! And did the same thing but sourced a rust free bed and replaced it! cheers from Michigan! I want that diesel so bad!
