Frame coating from Auto Rust Technicians

My father has an 03 Tundra, and the coating from Toyota lasted about 5 years as well. His frame is in much better shape, no rot holes, etc. I can't believe a Toyota dealership would patch a frame and pass it! It is illegal to have a patched frame in RI ( or all least many inspection stations frown upon have a frame patched).
What's this number you speak of?

 

So I looked it's 800-331-4331 looked it up on the web customer experience call center.
Not sure how legal it is either in Vt. Kinda wondering who's telling the truth about warranty? The dealer is gonna get paid by Toyota why turn down work? Toyota rocks standing behind their stuff.

Nice grill man your rig is pretty clean looks good!
Love the reg cab.

 

Cool, thanks for the number. I still wouldn't trust a patched frame, but if the owner is okay with it...

Thanks! You have the bronze TRD beadlock wheels?

 

Yea I do finally.
Too cheap to buy new!
Craigslist find, ended up being a VT Tacoma world member good guy.

 

Hey guys I just wanted to put this out there. I do undercoating on the side. With the Toyota product (I forget the actual name of it). So if anyone wants their truck under coated,shoot me a message! I'm on long island

 

have they at the autorusttechs improved on their tools in the 10 years since?
any ideas

 

I have no idea, I haven't been back since I started this thread.

If you have a pretty clean frame (or light surface rust) I would still use Fluid Film/WoolWax/Surface Shield. If you have have rust scale build up, I would clean that off before spraying anything.

 

thanks!
i will check with them in Cranston

maybe an acid treatment treatment of sorts is used these days like a place dunked my lower fuel shield in to clean all the surface crusty off before coating it

i am searching the northeast forums for anybody that has had their Tacoma worked on by the autorust techs
...haven't found much yet other than your thread from last decade LOL

 

I am not a fan of the undercoating job that they did, but in years since, I have seen the pieces they make for frames, and those seem to be of nice quality (I have never installed anything like that).
