You guys are going to think I'm crazy. When I first get a vehicle I spread a plastic tarp under it. Then fill a pump sprayer with used crankcase oil and spray the oil covering all the frame and associated parts,except the brakes,engine and tranny, with a good coat and let it sit overnight till the excess drips off on the tarp. Used to watch my Dad do this and he, nor I, have had frame rust trouble. I do the wheel wells and inside the bumpers too.
Oh if it is boxed I spray in the holes along the chasssis..
I like it. The BIL that worked at the Ford plant filled his new Galaxie 500 doors and front panels with oil as it came down the line. That car, unlike all its brothers, never rusted in those areas.
