Does my frame look any better?
So my trucks out of Wisconsin and it was FULL of rust when I got it.So me being 16 and no job or money to have it sand blasted, decided it was a good idea to go at it with a wired brush on an industrial grade sander . Think it came out pretty well, what do you guys think? Anything else I could do to it? I painted it as well to stop the rust but that's drying now, pictures to come.
This was drivers side before sanding-

I hope you are going to paint the bare metal after the rust removal. If not, what you did is for nothing and it will come back much worse, as there is no metal conditioner left with all the grinding.
Oops, I didn't see where you painted afterward. Good call

Much nicer. Mucho better. That was worth the effort. If you have any good undercoating, use some to protect it longer and better. You have a lot more perseverance than I ever could come up with.
