Rust on a 1997 diesel

My 1997 F250 diesel has 222,000 miles and is rusting at the wheel wells and on the edge of the cab. What can be done to keep this from becoming too large of a problem? I know I can get many more years out of this truck, but the body will not outlast the engine. Please help!

Clean all the dirt and filth out from the interior of the panels and then coat with a rusk blocker.

This includes pulling the interior out and cleaning the interior cab corners and door bottoms and everywhere else dirt and filth have collected holding moister.

-Enjoy
