• Front pillar butt joint can be determined anywhere within shaded area as shown in the figure. The best location for the butt joint is at position A due to the construction of the vehicle. Refer to the front pillar section.

• Determine cutting position and record distance from the locating indent. Use this distance when cutting the service part. Cut outer front pillar over 60 mm (2.36 in) above inner front pillar cut position.

• Prepare a cutting jig to make outer pillar easier to cut. Also, this will permit service part to be accurately cut at joint position.

• An example of cutting operation using a cutting jig is as follows.

1.  Mark cutting lines.

1.  Cut position of outer pillar
2.  Cut position of inner pillar

2.  Align cutting line with notch on jig. Clamp jig to pillar.
3.  Cut outer pillar along groove of jig (at position A).
4.  Remove jig and cut remaining portions.
