  1. REMOVAL

    Symbol Meaning
    B006JOY Remove Weld Points
    B006JQU Remove Weld Points
    B006JPE Cut and Join Location

    1. Do not butt weld or heat repair because the heat decreases the strength of areas where ultra high strength steel is used. (See the introduction)

    2. Be careful when cutting as foamed sealing material is located near the cutting position.

      Tech Tips

      Remove the remaining foamed sealing material from the vehicles side.

    1. Inspect the fitting of the related parts around the new parts before welding. This affects the appearance of the finish.

    2. Temporarily install the new parts and measure each part of the new parts in accordance with the body dimension diagram. (See the body dimensions)

    3. If the entire supply part is not needed, remove the part of the supply part that is needed.

        Note

        Be sure to use Metal active gas (Ar 80% + CO220%) as the shield gas when plug welding.Sufficient weld strength cannot be assured when using 100% CO2shield gas.

    5. Weld the rocker panel sub-assembly outer, front body pillar reinforce sub-assembly lower and front body pillar upper inner to the vehicle side.
