Repairing wheel well rust on the '04 Crew Cab (thread here).

Anyone have any luck preventing dirt and moisture from accumulating in that area? I've seen a few plastic wheel well liners. Thoughts?

I spend about an hour every fall & spray the underside of my truck with drain oil(used engine oil). I pull all the plastic plugs out & spray it in the rockers, cab corners, wheel wells, bottom of doors, ect. It's messy but works really good & what rust is there won't get any worse.
