INSTALLATION
_ Temporarily install the new parts and measure each part of the new parts in accordance with the body dimension
diagram. (See the body dimension diagram)
_ Inspect the fitting of the related parts around the new parts before welding. This affects the appearance of the
finish.
_ After welding, apply the polyurethane foam to the corresponding parts.
_ After welding, apply body sealer and under-coating to the corresponding parts.
_ After applying the top coat layer, apply anti-rust agent to the inside of the necked section structural weld spots.
POINT
1 Before temporarily installing the new parts, apply body sealer to the reinforcement, side impact protection
beam and back side of the new parts.
HINT:
1) Apply sealer evenly about 10 mm (0.39 in.) from the flange and 3 mm (0.12 in.) in diameter to the outer
panel and apply just enough sealer for the reinforcement and side impact protection beam to make con-
tact.
2 Bend the flange hem about 30S with a hammer and dolly, then fasten tightly with a hemming tool.
HINT:
1) Perform hemming in three steps, being careful not to warp the panel.
2) If a hemming tool cannot be used, hem with a hammer and dolly.
