GENERAL INFORMATIONVehicle on repair bench: Description 40A

I - MAIN REFERENCE POINTS BEFORE TRIM-SETTING

1 - Front sub-frame in place

The jig crowns the front sub-frame rear mounting bolt(A) .

Use this situation for a rear impact or a light frontal im-pact without removal of the mechanical components.

2 - Front mechanical components removed

The jig rests under the sub-frame mounting unit and iscentred in the threaded hole (B) .

Use this situation for a frontal impact with removal ofthe mechanical components.

II - SECONDARY FRONT TRIM-SETTING REFERENCE POINT

The body jig covers radiator mounting cross membermounting bolt (C) .

Use this situation to confirm the trim-setting following arear impact, (e.g.: to replace a rear side member as-sembly).

It is used to confirm the vehicle level in case of doubtabout the deformation of a main rear reference point.

112027

112250

Note:

If it is suspected that one of these points may bedeformed, use two additional points located in anarea not affected by the impact in order to confirmtrim-setting.

2 - Rear mechanical components removed

The jig rests under the rear side member and is cen-tred in the tapped hole (E) .

Use this situation for a rear impact with removal of themechanical components.

IV - SECONDARY REAR TRIM-SETTING REFERENCE POINT

The jig rests under the rear side member and is posi-tioned in square hole (F) .

Use this situation to confirm the trim-setting following afrontal impact (e.g.: to replace a complete front halfunit).

It is used to confirm the vehicle trim setting in case ofdoubt about the deformation of a main front referencepoint.
