CAUTION
Perform the operations carefully so that the cut ends fit
together properly.
11. Cutting of new parts by using a measurement marking
If overlap cutting is not possible in a place where butt
welding is to be done, make a measurement marking on the
new part at the exact same measurement which was used
for the cutting of the body panel, and then cut the new part
by using this measurement marking.

Two-layer construction
When cutting a front pillar or center pillar which has a two-
layer construction but no reinforcement, make the cutting of
the inner panel and that of the outer panel approximately 50
mm (2.0 inches) apart in order to obtain maximum strength.
•
Three-layer construction
When cutting a front pillar or center pillar which has a three-
layer (including a reinforcement) construction (double-box
construction), cut the outer panel and the reinforcement at
the same position, and don't forget to butt weld the rein-
forcement. If the inner panel is an assembly replacement
part, cut it at two places in order to provide ample working
space for the butt welding of the reinforcement.
12. Application of spot sealer to spot-welded points
Apply an electro-conductive spot sealer to the connecting
surfaces of both the new parts and the vehicle body in order
to provide corrosion protection.
