Drilling frame for Rock Sliders

[TheMrThumper]

Hello awesome Taco People.

I am excitedly awaiting the delivery of my C4 Fab Rock sliders.

I plan on drilling the additional holes for the sliders for the added strength. Who else has drilled their frame for this and what have you done to help protect from rust and other damage post drilling?

Kindly please keep your "weld it instead" and "dont drill it" comments to yourself.

At work we needle gun or wire wheel the boat to bare metal then coroseal, prime, prime, paint, paint, clear coat. I’d assume something similar. I didnt drill the extra holes personally I didnt have the need mine don’t get much use.

On my Jeep I use zero rust paint on the frame and have had pretty good luck with it.
