Preparation

Preparation

1. Operating on a bench, cut the new pillar with a jig saw remembering to leave enough marin for overlapping.
   • Using a rotating brush clean the perimeter of the pillar and the welding areas.
2. Spread Type B electroweldable protection on the spot welding areas.
3. Spread Type A electroweldable paste on the areas indicated in the illustration.

Positioning

1. Position the pillar as shown in the illustration and secure and mate the edges.
   • Check parallelism, gaps and angles (this necessitates the installation of the mobile components which were previously removed along with the gas-kets and parts which, when installed, will make it possible to check the success of the operations) - (see: GR. 55 - REAR DOORS).
2. Using a circular saw trim the metal sheet and remove the excess parts indicated in the illustration, without damaging the underlying parts.
3. Using a jig saw, trim the metal sheets and remove the excess parts as indicated in the illustration without damaging the underlying parts.
