Outer Front Pillar, Center Pillar

and Quarter Panel Sectioning

CAUTION: When performing service on or near the Supplemental

Inflatable Restraint (SIR) components or the SIR wiring, the SIR system

must be disabled. Failure to follow the correct procedure could cause air

bag deployment, personal injury or unnecessary SIR system repairs.

The full body side outer panel comes as a one-piece assembly and can be

replaced at factory seams after removal of glass and roof. Any one of these

procedures can be performed separately, or in any combination, dependent

upon the extent of damage to the vehicle. Sectioning must take place in

specified areas only (Fig. 1-1). Remove front glass when sectioning front pillar

and rear glass for rear pillar repair.

IMPORTANT: When replacing panels that involve servicing stationary

glass, refer to GM Service Bulletin 43-10-48 before performing any

priming or refinishing.

Sectioning

Removal Procedure

IMPORTANT: Sectioning should be performed

only in the recommended areas. Failure to do

so may compromise the structural integrity of

the vehicle.

1. Visually inspect and restore as much of the

damage as possible to factory specifications.

2. Remove the following:

• Fender

• Windshield

• Door

• Hinge pillar blocks

3. Determine sectioning locations. Section in

approved areas only (see Fig.␣ 1-1).

4. Mark locations and cut part through outer

panel only.

5. Locate factory welds and drill out, noting

number and locations of welds (Fig.␣ 1-2).

6. Locate and drill out spot welds on weather

strip retainer as necessary. It is not necessary

to remove complete retainer.

7. Remove outer panel.

8. Note placement and number of foam baffles

for new installation. If baffles are damaged,

replacement service parts are available.

IMPORTANT: Hinge pillar blocks must be

replaced if damaged.

9. Clean adhesive and sealer from hydroformed

reinforcement tube as necessary. Note

location for reinstallation.

Service Part Preparation

1. Cut service part in corresponding locations to

fit original cut lines. Leave a gap of one-and-

one half times the metal thickness of

sectioning joint.

2. Create 100␣ mm (4␣ in) backing plate on rocker

panel from unused portion of service part

(Fig.␣ 1-3).

3. In windshield pillar area, use the hydroformed

inner rail for backing plate.

4. Drill 8␣ mm (5/16␣ in) plug weld holes in service

part according to original locations as noted.

Drill plug weld holes spaced 40␣ mm (1-5/8␣ in)

apart along backing plate location 25␣ mm

(1␣ in) from joint edge.

Installation Procedure

IMPORTANT: Remove all foam prior to welding

this section of the service panel.

1. Prepare mating surfaces.

2. Apply weld-through primer to mating surfaces

prior to assembly.

3. Weld backing plates to vehicle at rocker.

IMPORTANT: Replace hinge pillar blocks

prior to welding outer panel.

4. Apply windshield bonding adhesive to the

hydroformed reinforcement as noted from

removal procedure.

5. Position service part on vehicle. Clamp in

place. Check for proper fit.

6. Plug weld accordingly (Fig. 1-4).

7. Stitch weld along both sectioning joints. Make

25␣ mm (1␣ in) welds along the seam with

25␣ mm (1␣ in) gaps between, then go back and

complete the stitch weld to ensure structural

integrity of the vehicle.

8. Install insulating foam as necessary in areas

noted from original baffle locations.

IMPORTANT: Prior to refinishing, refer to

the publication GM4901M-D-2000 “GM

Approved Refinish Materials” for

recommended products. Do not combine

paint systems. Refer to paint manufacturer’s

recommendations.

4. Apply weld-through primer to mating

surfaces prior to assembly.

5. Align part and clamp in place. Check fit

(Fig. 1-7).

6. Spot blast plug weld areas.

7. Plug weld as necessary in original spot weld

locations and at backing plates.

8. Stitch weld at section joints, one inch on and

one inch off, as necessary, then go back and

complete the stitch weld. This will create a

solid joint with minimal heat distortion.

9. Dress welds and finish seams as necessary.

10. Refinish as necessary.

Quarter Panel Sectioning

Removal Procedure

The service part comes with lower quarter panel

extension and taillamp pocket attached. These

parts can be left on the vehicle if not damaged.

Drill out factory welds on the car and service part

and use the outer panel only.

IMPORTANT: When replacing panels that

involve servicing stationary glass, refer to GM

Service Bulletin 43-10-48 before performing any

priming or refinishing.

IMPORTANT: Sectioning should be performed

only in the recommended areas (Fig. 1-8).

Failure to do so may compromise the structural

integrity of the vehicle.

IMPORTANT: It may be necessary to unplug

and remove one end of the body wiring harness

that runs through quarter pillar lower extension

if it is necessary to replace extension.

1. Visually inspect and restore as much of the

damage as possible to the factory

specifications.

2. Remove all related panels and components.

3. Remove all sealers, sound deadeners and anti-

corrosion materials as necessary.

4. Determine sectioning locations in rocker area

(Fig. 1-8).

5. Mark a line and cut in approved sectioning

areas of rocker.

6. In upper quarter panel door opening, locate

the fourth weatherstrip hole (1).

7. Measure down 25␣ mm (1␣ in) and mark a line.

8. In back-glass opening, locate rear edge of roof

panel.

9. Measure down 25␣ mm (1␣ in), and scribe a

second line. Connect marks at both locations

to create a cut line.

10. Cut part at marked locations.

11. Locate, mark and drill out all factory welds.

Note the number and location of welds for

installation of the service assembly.

12. Remove damaged panel. Note placement and

number of foam baffles for new installation. If

baffles are damaged, replacement service parts

Preparation Of Service Part

1. Cut service part in corresponding locations to

fit original cut lines. Leave a gap of one-and-

one-half times the metal thickness of

sectioning joint (Fig. 1-9).

from original locations. At backing plates,drill

8␣ mm plug weld holes 13␣ mm (1/2␣ in) from

seam spaced 40␣ mm (1 1/2␣ in) apart.

Installation Procedure

1. Position service part on vehicle. Check fit

using body dimensions.

2. Temporarily remove service part.

3. Prepare mating surfaces.

IMPORTANT: Prior to refinishing, refer to

the publication GM4901M-D-2000 “GM

25␣ mm (1␣ in) welds along the seam with

25␣ mm (1␣ in) gaps between them (Fig. 1-10).

9. Go back and complete the stitch weld. This

will create a solid joint with minimal heat

distortion.

Inner Front Pillar

Sectioning

Removal Procedure

IMPORTANT: Sectioning should be performed

only in the recommended areas. Failure to do so

may compromise the structural integrity of the

vehicle.

1. Visually inspect and restore as much of the

damage as possible to factory specifications.

2. Remove outer panel according to specified

directions in Outer Panel Removal procedure.

3. Remove all necessary components to allow

access to repair area.

4. Locate and mark a horizontal line 50␣ mm

(2␣ in) down from the raised, square portion of

the hinge pillar (Fig. 1-12). This will be your

cut location (1).

5. At rocker panel, locate and mark a vertical cut

line in the approved sectioning location

(Fig.␣ 1-12).

6. Cut at the two marked locations. Use caution

to cut through one layer of metal only.

7. Locate and drill out factory welds noting the

number and location of welds.

8. Remove damaged section from vehicle.

Preparation of Service Part

1. On hinge pillar, scribe a cut line 25␣ mm (1␣ in)

below the raised, square portion of the hinge

pillar. This will create a 25␣ mm (1␣ in) overlap

on the service part.

2. Notch the panel on the door weather-strip

flange (1) to prevent excessive metal thickness

in this area (Fig. 1-13).

3. In rocker area, locate and mark a cut line in

the recommended sectioning area. Allow for a

50␣ mm (2␣ in) overlap to the vehicle sectioning

areas (Fig. 1-13).

4. Cut along marked sectioning lines to create

service part.

5. Notch upper and lower edges of service part

(2) to prevent excessive metal thickness in this

area (Fig. 1-13).

6. Drill plug weld holes spaced 40␣ mm (1-5/8␣ in)

apart along overlap flanges. Place holes

25␣ mm (1␣ in) from edge on rocker panel and

13␣ mm (1/2␣ in) from edge on hinge pillar.
