I have a '99 and the PO lived up north (im in FL no salt) so theres a pretty good amout of rust under the body there not much on the floor pan but the frame and suspension parts do I though about just undercoating it so it wouldent look so bad. But I plan on keepin the truck for a wile and I dont want it just getting worse underneeth the undercoating so whats yalls sugestions on how to do it all? I would like to cover it all in POR15 but dont see how im going to get into all the little areas and what not.

Well simplest, and most pain in the *** way...is pulling the bed, doing everything under there. Then putting the bed back on, pull the cab, etc.

Easiest way to cover the whole frame and gurantee that you coated every spot. I own a 99 Silverado with 176,xxx miles now and its been driven in illinois winters since it was made, and i still don't have one spot of rust on it...kinda wierd.

I honestly couldn't tell you...i'd think it would be like an older vehicle except the whole unplugging harnesses and such.

Pull the steering linkage, cab mounts, heater and a/c lines , whatever the hell else is tucked up in there.

Does anyone else have more information on this topic, has anyone even done it on a newer style truck. This something I am interesed in doing in the spring as i also live in the northeast. Thanks for any input.

That is what I was going to use but then decided to go with por-15 instead. It seems to be the one everyone says to use and its only like 50 bucks more so why not use it instead.
