Radiator Support: Service and Repair
Inner Body Reinforcing Panels
Exploded View
WARNING:
- Invisible ultraviolet and infrared rays emitted in welding can injure unprotected eyes and skin. Always use protection such as a welder's helmet with dark-colored filter lenses of the correct density. Electric welding will produce intense radiation, therefore, filter plate lenses of the deepest shade providing adequate visibility are recommended. It is strongly recommended that persons working in the weld area wear flash safety goggles. Also wear protective clothing. Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious personal injury.
- Always wear protective equipment including eye protection with side shields, and a dust mask when sanding or grinding. Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious personal injury.
NOTICE: Sectioning procedures can only be carried out on the outer body side panel. No sectioning repairs can be carried out on inner body reinforcing panels. Failure to follow these instructions may compromise structural integrity of the body structure. REFER to Sectioning Guidelines.
- See the Ford Recommended Steel Repairability Matrix. REFER to SPECIFICATIONS for correct welding requirements.
