Torklift Rust

Good day,

I located a set of torklift mounts locally that are used. They are priced under $200 for the complete set. Seller is an older gentleman and he shared with me that they had some rust on them on some of the flat areas. Some of it may have been up to half the thickness of the material on a portion of the flat parts where dirt and moisture can collect.

I am always trying to balance value with cost. Saving a chunk of change is exciting. But, sometimes an item is too used to make it worth it.

I'm going to look at them tonight. They have been repainted already which will make it hard to see some of the damage.

Thoughts on when there is too much rust on torklift tiedowns to make it worthwhile?

  • Implied above, but you can certainly see, feel, and measure the material loss-to-corrosion despite the fresh paint.

    You should be fine.
