Humid air that condenses on the colder steel. The water normally evaporates
but the insulation sucks it up like a sponge. Holds it next to the steel
and causes rot. Grab a pair of the door skin pliers like Eastwood sells http://www.eastwood.com/door-skin-removal-pliers.html Opens that seam nice
and doesn’t buckle the outside.
Then I like to run a brush in there to get the scale out. Then some
phosphoric acid mix to eat the rust. primer, crimp shut and seam seal. Then
some fluid film from inside the door. Seems to slow the rot WAY down….
one thing that I have done is after the work is done drill 1/4 inch holes
in the back if the rockers and corners and fill it up with Great Stuff foam
insulation
the insulation on my 88 4×4 was rubber but still allowed the truck to rust
the cab corners out though. my 89 silverado Sport has just now gotten one
hole in the cab corner mostly from sitting it tall grass and my 91
silverado long bed so far has escaped that fate all together. that’s all
the pickups i have the others are suburban, tahoe,S-10 Blazer, firebird and
saturn ,
just wondering, how much would this cost
my car is just about at the same stage

Is there a vent between the cab and box that could be letting all that
water in?
Cool vid, thanks for the update. Hate that damn shit they put in
there…pain in the ass.
