Picked up an Ames 64623 inspection camera from HF on my way home to night. An inspection camera's been on my wishlist for a long time but I've never got one until now.
Project behind the purchase is that I found rust pinholes in the unibody framerail , at the rear LCA mounton my daily driver Jeep WJ a couple weeks back. I want to get a good look inside the framerail, as I plot my extreme overkill repair plan.I need to know twhat shape the other 2 sides of the "framerail" are in, so I can plan on either cutting a access hole to be plated over with frame stiffeners, or else just cutting the LCA mount out for access, with the opening being patched with a long piece of 1/8" plate inside the framerail, with the LCA mount reinstalled outside the repair. Access being to mechanically/chemically remove all rust I can find inside the framerail, then paint/rustproofing of a TBD nature. Trouble being that whatever I apply will have to be after the frame's closed up, as it'll be burnt off when welding in the patches and frame stiffeners.
