T-9 is great stuff. I spray down all my suspension parts with it before winter.

Is there any issues with using fluid film or t-9 around moving parts? I read something somewhere about creeping into the leaf springs and causing other issues?

Been searching have some liner coming in a few days and I wanted to protect things if I can or it's just best to leave it, sealing sometimes causing more rust faster?

So I'm trying to be smart about this venture, knowing I have to then do this yearly. These products don't kill rust, they just impede it from happening faster?

Thanks guys...

I have seen in the Forum that some have sprayed with a protectant beforehand. Just wanting your opinions before that arrive tomorrow. Thanks for your help!

Where you located? I am in Newfoundland. Worst place in the world for salt. I installed my liners without doing anything. But "Rust Check" my truck every year. No worries.
