The use the access holes of the rocker and cab corner to spray inner frame coating into it. Then seam seal anywhere water or salt could get in. This has worked extremely well so far on 4 2nd gen dodges. First one was 6 years ago. That truck was wrecked this spring and everything was still rust free at the seams.
