So I'm sure that the majority of you have dealt with rust with the 1st Gen Expys seeing as they're along the lines of 20 years old now. That being said, the lower end (bottom) of my liftgate has gone from Okay to Bad in the time span of a year. So for starters (I rarely use my liftegate) it all started as surface rust a couple years back, so I sanded it down, got all the crap off primed it and repainted it and thought it was a done deal, well it's gotten bad to a point where some of it is flaking off in solid chunks and I'm kinda PO's to say the least.
I'm at that point where I'm looking at just buying a new liftgate as well as thinking of ideas to cut the bottom end off and just fabricate a new bottom.
So I wanted to ask if anybody has any experience with this issue and if yes, what did you do to resolve or remedy the issue? Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
