Request

What type of sectioning joint should be used for the outer uniside?

Response

Per the 2015 Ford F-150 Structural Repair Training (FOR06) course: "When sectioning the outer side panel the repair seam may be welded or adhesively bonded using a butt joint with backing. These considerations should never be applied to structural repairs."
