I think you can get at them from underneath the cab. If you have a driver's
side cowl vent you can get at them through that, or through the louvers in
the passenger side. I use an engine cleaning wand (a long air nozzle with a
pickup hose you can spray solvent through) to flush it out and then spray
zero rust or por15 with the wand(wear a really good mask and do it outdoors)
into the cavity until it runs out.

Subject: [oletrucks] gettin' rusty
does anyone have experience getting to the rusted areas behind the kick
panels in the AD trucks? The surface and out side are reasonably clean and
rust free but I would like to clean out inside the kick panel as well before
painting. Problem is, the kick panels were welded in at the factory. Also,
they are in good shape so really don't want to cut them out to get to the
inner area. Any ideas???
