How Bad Is My Rust Problem? (PICS)

My trucks a 1992 F150, I live in Wisconsin, and they dump enough salt on our roads in winter that the grass damn near never grows back around the roads. I don't really have anything to compare this rust to and I am hoping for your guys 2 cents on this never ending project.

I've put a lot into this truck in the 19 months I've owned it.

ALL new brakes, Booster to Rotors.
Front end rebuild. Wheel bearings, ball joints, linkage, etc
All new u-joints (Haven't done the front driveshaft yet)
Power Steering pump and lines
Frame Repair and Strengthening (Near Steering Gearbox)
Basic tune up stuff.
Window Wiper Motor
New MileMarker hub lockers
New Front Bumper
Ton of other little things...

Still have to rebuild the steering gearbox and get new leaf springs. After that its all mechanically perfect!



Just some eye candy lol








Getting New leaf springs and shackles, so just need to sandblast and repaint the mount. Got surface but no rot.






Frame Repair from the broke off cross member and what not...


Yuck!


Only serious spot of bad rot, not structural.


Looks good to me!


My Ghetto repair for my half of the exhaust breaking off. Going to do the same to the other side.
