Were the 1993 Toyota frames made by Dana Corp? What can I do?

Hey guys I heard about that 25 million dollar pay out from Dana corp. to Toyota. I would like to know if my '93 had its frame made by Dana corp. If so what does that mean for me? It only has 123,445 miles on it and is rusting out pretty bad. I live in a high salt area just like where most of the Tundras and Tacomas that were recalled. The frame has been welded twice since 2008 when I first heard about the recall. When we first heard about the recall we took it straight to the dealer and they refused to even look at it. I really like this truck but nothing I do stops the frame rust. What can I do?

Cathodic protection.
Find a new frame from a similar truck and swap everything over.
