Hard to tell without pics.
As far as fixing...involves cutting out the affected areas and welding new metal in it's place

Like I said it's along side the frame rails looks like that area would be the rear jack or lift spot

Should be ok right? Just a sheet metal area might be able to grind the rust and powder coat it ?

You should check some other areas too. That's some serious rust so you probably have more other places

At least now you know to always stick your head under with a flashlight before buying
