FRAME
WARNING
WARNINGS
Use eye protection when grinding or welding metal. Failure to do this couldresult in serious personal injury
or death.
Before proceeding with frame repair involving grinding or welding, verify that the vehicle fuel system is not
leaking or in contact with the repair area. Failure to do this could result in serious personal injury or death.
Do not allow an open flame or heat and metal spatter from arc welding to contact plastic body panels. Fire,
explosion can result causing serious personal injury or death.
When welded frame components are replaced, ensure that a complete penetration weld is achieved during
installation. If not, dangerous operating conditions can result.
Stand clear of cables or chains on pulling equipment during frame straightening operations. Failure to do
this can result in serious personal injury or death.
Do not venture under a hoisted vehicle that is not supported on safety stands. Walking under an unsup-
ported vehicle can result in serious personal injury or death.
1500 series Dodge Ram Trucks (2002 and later) are not designed for snow plowequipment. The front col-
lision repair tips must not be installed on any truck equipped with a snow plow, or even intended to be
equipped with a snow plow.
Do not reuse damaged fasteners. The quality of repair would be suspect. Failure to use only production
fasteners or fasteners of equivalent hardness can result in loosening or failure of the part. Do not drill any
holes in the frame that are not specifically outlined in this, or in other DaimlerChrysler procedures as frame
rail failure can result causing serious personal injury or death. When using heat to straighten frame com-
ponents, do not exceed 566°C (1050°F). If temperature is exceeded, metal fatigue can happen and result in
serious personal injury or death.
