You want to have a good look around mate I am traybacking mine and the sills are f**cked there was 3 places on the bulkhead/ fire wall which needed cut out and nice new steel welded in there was also 2 places on the floor the problem I have found is the under seal it looks ok and then you touch it and the is little pockets of water behind it eating away

It was a choice between cutting out all the rust and replacing it or just cut the back off :laugh: and didnt fancy sitting on my backside welding up the arches so out came the 9" disc cutter.. i couldnt justify doing it to a jimny that wasnt rusty
