Salt protection?
Listen to Tooljunkie! Fluid Film is amazing. Plow operators and farmers use it on their equipment up here in the rust belt. It's somewhat expensive but it creeps into every nook and cranny and displaces water. It won't hurt rubber or plastic as some oils do (think I've read it's Lanolin based).
You apply it with an undercoating (Shultz) gun and I make my own wands out of PVC tubing to get into rockers etc. I've bought Fluid Film at John Deere dealers by the gallon, but now I see it on Amazon.
I have a '95 Dakota plow truck that has 190K on it and up here that's extremely rare. most of them have been scrapped with rusted out frames and worse. Knock on wood, but my old Dak hasn't had a fuel or brake line replaced yet! Plows out 1200 feet of driveway and parking areas at 3 residences and a barn. And it is my winter road machine (they turn the blacktop white with salt up here), While my Cummins sits in the barn :)
Worst thing you can repeatedly do is wash the undercarriage of a salty vehicle. I keeps the salt wet and it penetrates seams, rockers etc. and keeps chomping away at the metal 24/7.
Seriously, Google "Fluid Film"
