Toyota Tacoma Frame Rust Repair Episode 2 of 2



My 2002 Toyota Tacoma had significant frame rust around the rear leaf spring mount. This episode shows welding of the rear section on the truck to remove all rusty metal on the frame. I decided to go all in and replaced all suspension components in the back and make sure that rust was not going to be an issue anytime soon.

I hope that these videos inspire someone to put in the work to fix their Tacoma if the truck still has value and is solid minus the frame rust. Before starting this project, inspect your frame to make sure there is enough metal to weld to and will be structural, since this is not a light job.
