I recently acquired a 01 Durango 5.9 (RT model) w/113k miles great all around power house. Had some crossmember damage from a failed ball-joint which in turn caused some slight damage to the power steering system (now fixed). If left unprotected the underside of the body and frame rusts like crazy. Next spring I'm crawling under it and removing as much rust as possible...use an inner frame coating from Eastwood, their rust encapsulator, and their undercoating...Have used them in the past with great results that last for years. It's mainly the rust is my only concern with the vehicle and the low oil pressure situation I had which seems to be holding at normal PSI range after doing an oil change converting to full synthetic 5w30 along with a quart of lucas synthetic oil stabilizer.
