The Power of Apple Cider Vinegar for Rust Removal

I might be "out west" but these parts came from Wisconsin. Might not be as bad as Ohio, but they were still plenty rusty.

I hear you. I:m just mad because it took me about 3.5 hrs to pull both rear springs and shocks (that I needed to re-use on another Jeep) off of a '97 Cherokee, due to some good old Ohio rust !! Was driving the Jeep everyday with no issues until I power braked it a little in a parking lot, and the passenger side front spring eye popped up into the interior. When I got done heating, beating, and air hammering out the springs & shocks, I swept up about 8 lbs of rust ! I'm thinking a California guy might still be curled up in a corner, trembling and mumbling to himself, if he would of had to do that job !!!!!
