I have developed rust holes in the inner wheel well of my 07 expedition and am looking for tips to fix them. Water is getting in the rockers and causing rust

If I were here, you would know it !
Well the best way it to cut (or have somebody do it) the rusted metal out, grind down the surrounding areas, & patch/weld/rivet in some stainless (or galvanized) steel sections, prime & paint with undercoating material over the entire area....

I am facing a similar issue, and have an appointment next week with a company called "Rust Repair Inc" to see what its gonna take to fix my rocker panels....

Hopefully it won't be too bad, but I am crossing my fingers :)
