Hi, I need some guidance concerning rust repair around the jack ports on both sides. It is pretty extensive and can be found about one foot up from the ports. How do I get to it? Do I have to drop the engine?
I appreciate any suggestions. |

How are the rest of the "Longs"? Take some pics to show us how bad it is.
Brad Meyer sells a clamshell kit to repair the longs if they are rusted out. Geoff |

Mazda,
Can you post pics? By "up from the ports" do you mean from the jack receiver to the back of the car, or forward to the front? -Rusty (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smoke.gif) |

If you mean up the inner wheel house behind the quarter panels that will be challenging. I recommend removing the engine before you start, and having a good look around at all the frame/firewall area.
