Request

Is there a sectioning procedure available for the front lower rails?

Response

Toyota does not have a sectioning procedure for the front lower rail.

Per Toyota Bulletin #176 - Approved Collision Repair Methods: A "Method Not Approved" is "Sectioning at Non-Specified Locations"

A tool that may be used to find out if the vehicle maker has a partial replacement or sectioning procedure is the I-CAR developed OEM Partial Part Replacement Search.
