FRONT 4–11
3. FRONT LONGITUDINAL
3-1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The front longitudinal is joined to the wheelhouse and
front panel, it forms the base for the front suspension,
engine, transmission and others. Therefore, replace-
ment of the component affects the front wheel alignment
and maintains the rigidity of the front section. When
assembling it, either use a jig or follow dimensions on
the body repair chart for positioning. It must be welded
carefully.

Before cutting off the damaged sections, pull them
out so that they are restored to the original shape.

from the front longitudinal if the wheelhouse is to be
replaced also.

Use the special spot cutter to drill holes at the
spot weld nuggets on the center punched areas.
