I MUST ADD THAT THIS IS ONLY A TEMP MEASURE AS THE RUST IS RUSTING OUT AND WILL ALWAYS COME BACK

Nice insight at problem and solution. Keep up good work.

Thank you so much for the info!

Really nice job Kev. Just mine to do now LOL.

Lol good video, I'm about to purchase a 2014 old body and I feel I will need these tips ✌

Great vid , I got told before you isolate & your inside panel are off , pouring oil WD40 inside pael so it swills around helps save the internal rust coming through , KEEP WELL& SAFE FELLA !✊💥👍

On the left side my Jumbo has those vent holes open, but on the other side they are pinched together. Should I open them with screwdriver? And...where is the water coming in, so that it needs to be dripped out there? Thanks

Looking good 👍

Hi John.. I would buff out but I am going to do the slam above the windscreen, so I will use the spray gun to do that and then do below the trim line to get a better finish..? Cheer Mate

problem i found is the rust proof coating on all the interrior of panels was some kind of epoxy which is super strong but over time micro cracks and natural drying of the coating made it brittle and come unstuck letting moisture in to the steel. needs something stronger, the modern method is to use electro deposition which bonds like a weld to the metal

Hi Stanley.. agree with you there.. its like they only primed the metal, and primer does let moisture through.. thanks for the comment

A real mad man

I've had two of these vans over the years. Sorry mate that won't work. Transits rust in numerous places. You need to cut it out and weld plates in, they rust from the inside and it will be far worse inside. When you cut the rust out then you can inject with something like Dynax. Unfortunately that job is going to rust again in a few months.

Hi Matt.. YES we all know that, I did say in the video that this is only a temp repair so that I could take her to a show.. Complete new sill on it now, its the only way to get rid of it all together.. Thanks for the comment..

Hi.. Jumbo's tend to rust just behind the rear wheel arches.. Front driver step. Top of the chassie legs under the bonnet.. The rear spring tend to crack on the top of the rear shackle. other that that its just rust from stone chips, that is just surface normally.. The oil will be black, but check that it is thin as milk, pull dip stick and rub the oil between your fingers to see if it feels gritty, if it is thats bad.. Start the engine and try riding the clutch with the brakes on full to check for slip and high the peddle is from stalling.. And of course if any dash lights are on, they can be expensive to turn off..? Cheers

Great video. Just what ive been looking for. Just on a different subject, how did you fix on your front fog lights?

@WonderingWomble

4 жыл бұрын

Hi Bud.. They are the proper Fog lights for the ford transit bumper fog lights (fitted on higher spec vans). Even with a standard transit the bolt holes are there. I think that the early ford focus and mondao ones are the same but you have to move the bolt holes a little.. Depending on the spec of the van, sometimes the wiring is there as well..? If you mean the driving lights in the middle above the number plate. That is a bracket i got off ebay, it is L-shaped and blots in the place of the number plate and then the number plate bolts to it.. it has a small round nudge bar welded across the front of it so no sharp edges.. Remember if you fit any extra lights to a transit, use a relay as the standard wiring is not strong enough.. Bit of a long reply, but hope it helps.. Thanks

You really ought to have put some rust converter on before the filler mate. It’ll just keep on rusting under the filler mate. And NO!!, I’m not knocking you or slating your work in ANY way it’s just an observation. Take care. Mark

Trouble is it will keep coming back and get worse, transits are crap when it comes to rust which is a real shame as they are generally a good van! Nice repair though 👍🏻
