| Description of the problem | Frame rotted from rust where the rear suspension attaches to the frame. Too much rust to repair. Remaining vehicle is in good shape considering only 107k miles. Suspension broke free from the frame during normal road operation. I am told that the problem is epidemic with jeep tj frames. Apparently so because there is noting available on the used parts market. Lots of tj bodies and parts available but no frames to go along with them. |
