there’s a huge difference in frame rust and axle rust and you’re conflating the two. The frame has been intentionally coated with anti corrosive chemicals and electro coated. The axle of black iron. It is not the same. Frame rust should be dealt with differently than axle rust

JFC, I’m so tired of all of this complaining about rust on the UNDERCARRIAGE, do whatever y’all want. Rhino line the whole damn underside. Brush it off and watch it come back again, spray paint it, I don’t really care. I was trying to be helpful but good lord y’all are worried about nonsense

I get it - you just dropped $60k or more on a new truck and this is ugly. It’s also normal, and not a negative indicator in terms of worksmanship, parts quality, reliability, or lifespan.
You’ll feel better when the remainder of the axle assembly has the same fine surface rust.
