I was looking at using Evapo-rust before using a coating like POR15 or just the rubberized undercoating spray can

Doesn't hurt to try a couple cans of Fliud film. My front rod ends have 0 rust after a few months. Can't wait to see how this stuff works over the winter.

Are you using the aerosol can or the gallon ?

Fluid film in the aerosol is great for tight spots since the gallon is thick like pudding.
But the thick stuff in the gallons is great for the underbody and suspension components where you want it to withstand driving in rain etc...

I've used the rust oleum rust converter stuff a lot, but I plan on cleaning it all up in the spring and using por 15 followed up with some tractor enamel to protect it from uv and such.

Hmm the UV protection is a good idea. Tractor enamel will have to look at that
