Suggest that your other and future vehicles get treated with lanolin oil to prevent the rust.

If you want to keep it look in the Jeep forums for a used frame that you can verify.

This is from one year ago. Who knows maybe he still has a few unsold and he's in New England.

Sell it as a complete running project...........some Jeep nut will save it. I'd pass on trying to swap the frame, you are going to find all sorts of rust and the project will never get finished.

Why do you spell it JeeP? I’ve had Jeep’s for years and never heard of this. Heep’s is what I’ve known them as.

I didn’t like my Jeep at all . I had bought a 2012 Sahara brand new

It was plagued with so many issues….I finally got rid of it as Jeep couldn’t get rid of the death wobble .

My Jeep made all the auto publications when it was delivered with Sahara painted fender flares on one side and rubberized sport flares on the other…

At 12k miles I needed new heads because of a design flaw..

It was crap and turned me back off to american vehicles

I'm a rural mail carrier, and some of my coworkers used RHD Wranglers. They seem to constant have problems with them, even the newer ones. If it's not the engine or transmission, it's something electrical.

I still maintain having seen since last April what road salt does that it’s criminal. Vandalism.

There was a lady that lived on the beach in Jacksonville. Her son told her to park her car facing one way for half the year and the opposite way for the other half of the year. That way it would rust evenly.
