Here's my old sub frame that is for the skip.

Repaired once already for MOT, had another poke about then this!

Previous repair is just visible on far right of first photo near mounting hole.

As it looked before removing and having a poke about!

Scary stuff.

Think anyone with a 3200/4200/GS that has seen rain/salt should get it on a ramp and focus on the subframes as they seem to disappear before your eyes.

Trouble is the rust is from the inside out as evident here and as the previous posts by Arnie, so even a reasonable looking frame can suffer internal corrosion out of sight until it's too late.
