Rusty New '05 Scab...
?? '05 Scab with 3K miles on it. Steering gear box and tie rod adjustment threads are already quite rusty. Ditto for a number of rivets in the frame. Am planning on taking a wire brush to as many as possible and then paint.
Also debating on what to do with the rear u-bolts - they are getting rusty too.
Oh yeah, almost forgot - differential cover is also rusting in spots...
OK, rust on most of the above won't really affect functionality, but will sure have an effect on maintenance down the road. Besides I don't like it!
Anybody any ideas to combat this???

Don't come up to Ontario(Canada) where we lather our roads with salt in the winter time. We have to give our vehicles a oil treatment every year to protect it from turninng to "Dust in the wind"(from that commercial I have seen)
