Request

Is there a sectioning procedure available for the A-pillar reinforcement?

Response

Ford does not have a sectioning procedure for the A-pillar reinforcement.

Per the Ford Workshop Manual: “NOTE: Due to the metal composition of the A-pillar and front floor panel reinforcement, no sectioning is permitted in these areas. Components must be replaced at the factory seams.”
