Frame Reinforcement

FRAME REINFORCEMENT

NOTE: The frame must be straightened before any reinforcing can be started. For additional information, refer to Frame Straightening.

1. After a bent frame member has been straightened, inspect the frame member closely for cracks. If any cracks show, the frame member should be weld repaired or installed new.

If welding is the chosen method, extend the weld past the end of the crack by 25.4 mm (1 in).
