  • Page 13: Preparation For Installation

    INTRODUCTION IN-11 2. PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION (a) SPOT WELD POINTS (1) When welding panels with a combined thickness of Less than over 3 mm (0.12 in.), use a MIG (Metal Inert Gas) 3 mm welder for plug welding. HINT: Spot welding will not provide sufficient durability for panels over 3 mm (0.12 in.) thick.
  • Page 14 IN-12 INTRODUCTION 3. INSTALLATION Body Measurement Diagrams (a) PRE-WELDING MEASUREMENTS (1) Always take measurements before installing under- body or engine components to insure correct assem- bly. After installation, confirm proper fit. F10016A (b) WELDING PRECAUTIONS (1) The number of welding spots should be as follows. Spot weld: 1.3 X No.
  • Page 15 INTRODUCTION IN-13 4. ANTI-RUST TREATMENT Sealer Gun (a) BODY SEALER APPLICATION (1) For water-proofing and anti-corrosion measures, al- ways apply the body sealer to the body panel seams and hems of the doors, hoods, etc. F10021A (b) UNDERCOAT APPLICATION (1) To prevent corrosion and protect the body from dam- age by flying stones, always apply sufficient under- coat to the bottom surface of the under body and in- side of the wheel housings.
  • Page 16 IN-14 INTRODUCTION 6. ANTI-RUST TREATMENT BY PAINTING REFERENCE: Painting prevents corrosion and protect the sheet metal from damage. In this section, anti-chipping paint only for anti-corrosion purpose is described. (a) ANTI-CHIPPING PAINT (1) To prevent corrosion and protect the body from dam- age by flying stones, etc., apply anti-chipping paint to the rocker panel, wheel arch areas, balance panel, etc.
  • Page 17 INTRODUCTION IN-15 HANDLING PRECAUTIONS ON RELATED COMPONENTS 1. BRAKE SYSTEM The brake system is one of the most important safety components. Always follow the directions and notes given in brake (32) section of the repair manual for the relevant model when handling brake system parts.
  • Page 18 STRUCTURE PANELS 1. HEAT REPAIR FOR BODY STRUCTURE PANELS Toyota prohibits the use of the heat repair method on body structure panels when repairing a vehicle damaged in a col- lision. Panels that have high strength and rigidity, as well as a long life span for the automobile body are being sought after.
  • Page 19 INTRODUCTION IN-17 3. IMPACT BEAM REPAIR The impact beam and bracket are necessary and important parts that help reduce the probability of injury to passen- gers in side collisions. For impact beam, we use special high tensile strength steel. The high tensile strength steel maintains its special crystal- line organization by heat treatment or alloy additives.
