1993 TOYOTA PICKUP Structurebody Problems

I BOUGHT A 1993 4X4 TOYOTA PICKUP USED AND DISCOVERED IT IS RUSTED WORSE THAN ANY OTHER VEHICLE IVE EVER SEEN. THE FRAME IS RUSTED INTO IN MULTIPLE PLACES, THE BRAKE LINES HAVE RUSTED OFF AND I'VE LOST ALL BRAKES SO I CANT DRIVE IT AT ALL NOW. IT RUNS AND GOES GREAT OR WELL IT DID UNTILL FRAME BROKE AND BRAKES WENT OUT. APPARENTLY 1993 FRAMES ARE THE WORST FRAMES TO HAVE ACCORDING TO EVERYTHING IVE SEEN ONLINE. WHAT BOTHERS ME IS I HAVE A 1991 TWO WHEEL DRIVE TOYOTA TRUCK JUST LIKE IT AND IT DOESN'T HAVE ANY RUST AT ALL NOWHERE ON FRAME OR BODY. AND BOTH TRUCKS ARE FROM THE SAME AREA.

I WAS SCARED TO DEATH DRIVING BACK TO MY HOUSE FROM THE SHOP AND BEING FEMALE THE LAST THING I WANT IS FOR IT TO BREAK IN HALF AND BE STUCK ALONG THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. A COUPLE YEARS AGO I ALSO HAD TO HAVE THE FUEL TANK AND FUEL LINES REPLACED BECAUSE OF IT RUSTING OUT AND CAUSING FUEL TO LEAK OUT. ANOTHER SAFETY ISSUE. BOTH OF THESE ARE SAFETY ISSUES THAT IF I DIDN'T FIND OUT COULD HAVE TURNED OUT REALLY BADLY BY EITHER FIRE, CRASH AND BOTH COULD HAVE CAUSED DEATH. WHY THIS YEAR OF TRUCK ISN'T INCLUDED IN THE...

FRAME RAIL RUSTING THROUGH AT SPRING MOUNT. OPEN RECALL FOR 1995 AND LATER BUT DOES NOT COVER 1993/94 OR OLDER

THE FRAME IS COMPLETELY RUSTED THROUGH. CORROSION IS THROUGHOUT THE FRAME AND THE FRAME NEAR THE REAR LEAF SPRING MOUNT HAS A 7 INCH BY 1 INCH HOLE FROM RUST WHICH JOINS WITH A CRACK IN THE FRAME BETWEEN THE FIRST HOLE AND A SECOND RUST HOLE. RUST AND CORROSION IS THROUGHOUT THE FRAME AND SUSPENSION PARTS. I'VE NEVER SEEN ANY FRAME THIS BAD. SPRINGS, A-ARMS, AND ALL MANNER OF SUSPENSION AND BODY PARTS ARE CORRODED BADLY.
