[FE3-323]

YAY!!, Well i finally got someone to Tig up my new adjsutment links between the heimjoints in the rear. The old ones didn't make it through the corrosive WI winter & rusted in no time. so i upgraded purchased a 6Ft segment(only size available) & remocked up new adjustment links of pure SS no mild steel in the mix. I've still yet to replace the lower hiem joints which also corroaded in due time....

PICS!!

Yeah friggen rust burns me up. Our little 323 had never been winter driven until we got it. But after 3 Ottawa winters you can see little spots of surface rust here and there along the bottoms of the rockers. I just keep after it and keep it cleaned off. As long as doesn't get to take hold. With the amount of salt they use here in the winter it is a full time job. But I will stay on top of it.

that sucks ass. theres nothing you can coat the underside with that will repel salt?

[FE3-323]

not really.

I get it oilsprayed every year underneath and inside all the panels, that's about the best you can do.
There are alternatives to salt in the winter that aren't as corrosive, but the city is too cheap to use it.It is long term stupid, because we have bridges and underground garages ready to collapse from the long term effects of all the friggen salt they use. It is not only cars that are affected.
