[VAC] A frame rust



Hello,
My 67' has rust damage on the "A" frame where the cable (the one that hooks
to the tow vehicle) runs into the frame.  It appears that over the years
when it rains, snows the water follows the cable into the frame area and
sits there and rusts the steel.  How do you determine how much rust is to
much?  When looking into the frame with a flashlight you can see pitting on
the bottom edge.  The other side of the "A" frame appears to be OK.  Thanks
for any advice.  Dave
