Beat the Rot with Rust Buster Frame and Repair Components

Not everyone is lucky enough to live somewhere that doesn’t have to worry about rust. The rest of us have to deal with salt, road debris, and other gunk that can reduce a frame from a robust backbone holding a vehicle together to a flaky heap of Swiss cheese metal and iron oxide dust.

But thanks to Rust Buster Frameworks, you can repair your Jeep or truck’s frame and keep it on the road. Each repair section is designed using the latest in CAD 3D modeling software to guarantee a precise fit before being laser-cut, formed, and finish welded. If you’re handy with a welder, this will save you time and money—and lets you beat the rot for a change.

Frame Repair Sections
Rust Buster Frame Repair Sections let you fix the problem spots on your vehicle’s frame rather than going through the trouble of frame replacement. Rust Buster’s EZ slip design allows the sections to slide readily into place, and includes all factory holes.

Rust Buster Frame Repair Sections are available for many popular body-on-frame vehicles including these:
• 1976-2018 Jeep CJ and Wrangler
• 1988-98 Chevy/GMC full size pickups and SUVs
• 1994-2004 GM S-Series pickups and SUVs
• 1995-2014 Toyota pickups and SUVs
• 1998-2008 Ford Ranger

Frame Stiffeners
If your vehicle’s frame is in good shape but you want to make it stronger, Rust Buster Frame Stiffeners are for you. The stiffeners are made from .125-inch plate steel and will help strengthen the front, mid, or rear frame rails depending on the application and improve structural integrity. Summit Racing also carries a complete Boxing Plate Kit to reinforce the rear frame on 2005 and later Tacomas.

Body Mount Brackets
Water, dirt, and salt commonly get trapped between the body mounts and bushings, causing them to rot and rust. Replace them with exact-fit Rust Buster Body Mount Brackets. Made from 11-gauge steel, the brackets come with two welded nuts and two bolts for the body mount flange, and they accept OEM and most aftermarket body mount bushings.

Summit Racing carries other Rust Buster Frameworks frame repair parts including fuel tank crossmembers, shock mounts, frame-to-body mount brackets, bed mounts, and spare tire crossmembers. The Rust Buster website has really helpful illustrations that show all of the available repair parts by make:
