MOUNTING HOLES
When installing the lower bracket on frame rails the mounting holes in the chassis frame bracket and frame rail must com

ply with the general spacing and location guidelines illustrated in Figure 6–10. The hole diameter should not exceed the
bolt diameter by more than .060 inches (1.5 mm).

Frame Drilling
When mounting a body to the chassis, DO NOT drill holes in the
upper or lower flange of the frame rail. If the frame rail flanges are
modified or damaged, the rail could fail prematurely and cause an
accident. Mount the body using body mounting brackets or U–bolts.
Use care when drilling the frame web so the wires and air lines routed inside the rail are
not damaged, Failure to do so could cause an inoperable electrical or air system circuit.
Do not drill closely spaced holes in the frame rail. Hole centers of two adjacent holes
should be spaced no less than twice the diameter of the largest hole. closer spacing could
induce a failure between the holes.
