I recently boutght a new 06 2500Ram. The driveshaft and some front suspension parts closer to the wheelslook like they never recieved any kind of protective paint/coating on them. should'nt these parts have been coated at the factory or is this normal? are your trucks like this?everything that isnt coated is covered with surface rust. thanks

 

My truck has the same issue. I am going to take care of it after summertime (Arizona has some hot summers) I will clean them then either coat with flat black paint Rustoleum or something like that, or I will hit them with Sylicone spray.

 

2006 Ram Hemi 4x4. Bought new it had rust on the driveshaft front anf rear. I looked around at the lot and every single truck was like this.

 

yeah seems they all have this.. I put some rustoleum on it every so often..

 

Thanks guys. I guess its just the Norm, but I'm going to clean mine up and coat them this summer sometime.

 

yeah.....all driveshafts are rust.......there susposed to be like that.......lol
