- the grey-t escape
Well when I changed my tires out a few weeks ago I noticed a spot on the frame, left side where the shock mount rivits on, (The shock mount itself broke off from rust several years ago, I rigged up a new one with galvanized strap steel.) I tapped the frame where it was bubbling up and a hole appears. Going to have to pull the bed for this one, good time to check rest of the frame. I’ve already patched from the rearmost spring hangers back on both sides. It is nearly 30 years old and lived all its life in the salt belt. Still sucks though.
