9-30 BODY SERVICE
FRAME
Each individual component of the framework has not only an
effect on the vehicle stiffness and but also in wheels alignment
(convergence, camber angle, castor angle).
Consequently, it is essential to carry out thorough surveys of
the framework, doing if necessary weldings related to its
correction or substitution.
When it is found that the plugging treatment or the anticorrosion
one on the framework are damaged, it is compulsory to repair
immediately followed by an anticorrosion treatment (see 9-27).
NOTE:
To check main dimensions of the frame, see the annexed
sketches.
