Ok so to start off a just got a new 98 talon tsi. It came on tsw wheels and with it being winter time I decided to put the stock ones back on that it came with. So I went to jack the car up and noticed some issues, the frame rails going down the sides seem rusted out. I was trying to lift it and heard cracking and crushing so I looked under and the frame rail was bending to the jack and piece of wood between. Doing research I saw someone say that people commonly try to lift it by the (under seat frame) and that it tends to bend. I got a picture of it to post and would like some feedback. Am I trying to jack this car up by the wrong area? Is my frame rail rusted out and I need it fixed? Should I sell the car cause of how much work will be involved in fixing it? Thanks in advance, any help will be much appreciated
