The entire frame is rusted, the rust on the frame around the rear spring shackle rusted enough that the shackle is broken free. this was noticed due to the noises the shackle makes when moving. the vehicle has less than 108,000 miles. in addition the side steps rusted through and were hanging down, i had to remove them to prevent them from falling off.
