practice to provide a rigid connection on the end of the rear overhang (one per side), obtained with screws or plates on the upper
wing of the side member (see Figures 11 and 12).
In no other case should new holes be made on the wings of the main side members.
In cases in which the body uses elevated supports above the counter chassis (e.g. crossbars), it is necessary to suitably stiffen such
supports, to contain the longitudinal thrusts, as shown in Figure 13.
The front wall of the bodywork must have the necessary strength and toughness to support the forces generated by the transpor-
ted load, in the case of sudden and high decelerations.

Implementing van versions
A structure consisting of box section longitudinal and cross members may be used for connection to the chassis of the vehicle. For
the longitudinal profiles, refer to the indications in Table 3.4.
Figure 14 shows an example installation where, in order to contain the height of the superstructure, the longitudinal profiles are
integrated with cross members and brackets over the entire length.
In this case, the rear wheel arches may be inserted into the base of the structure.
