Hello fellow Tundra owners. This is my first post so I am not really sure what I am doing. I recently purchased a 2007 Limited 5.7L 4x4 and poorly negotiated after pointing out the orange showing through the spray on bed liner. After reading up online, I figured I'd better get in there and halt this cancer now. I am not 100% sure of the approach, but this is what I figured:
Cut out spray on around rust.
Wire wheel clean if surficial from the top, prime and respray
Open holes, wire wheel.
Lift bed off.
Sand blast frame rust points, prime, coat with something.
Sand blast bed bottom rust points, prime, coat with something.
Not sure how to cover over holes. I might have a few pieces of steel cut and welded into cut out hole.
Extend mud flaps inside to protect bed bottom where rocks and sand and water blast frame and bed bottom from rear wheels.
Any suggestions?
