5.1 Body
5.1.1 Body Structures - General
Information
When carrying out vehicle
conversions/modifications the following points
should be considered:
•Make sure that the vehicle structural integrity
is maintained
•Do not drill into closed frame body members.
•Make sure that the design for the body
alterations or additional structure disperse the
load evenly.
CAUTION: Uneven load distribution
could result in unacceptable
handling and braking
characteristics.
•Re-paint metal edges after cutting or drilling.
All metal edges must comply with exterior and
interior protection legislation.
•All fixings through the floor, sides or roof must
be sealed.
Refer to: 5.10 Corrosion Prevention (page 221).
WARNING: Before drilling the floor,
check the no drill zones.
See figure E74574 - Floor (No Drill Zones) under
the Floor Fuel Tank.
•Make sure that fixings in the 'B'-pillar area do
not encroach on the seat belts or seat belt
reels.
For unique floor fixings, see (Frame Drilling and
Tube Reinforcing).
Refer to: 5.11 Frame and Body Mounting (page
222).
For Load Compartment Tie Downs(Load Lashing
Points).
Refer to: 5.2 (page 200).

5.1.2 Back Panel Removal
When planning and specifying the base vehicle
and the conversion, select the Special Vehicle
Option, which has a detachable cab back panel.
Please consult your local National Sales
Representative for availability.
5.1.3 Integrated Bodies and
Conversions
For integral structures such as ambulances or
motor-homes with increased rear overhang built
onto the chassis the following applies:
•Reduced departure angles, e.g. rear entry
step, should be discussed with the end user
/ customer. Consider removable components
to avoid damage on ferries or low-loaders.
•Unique spare wheel stowage may be required
if obscured by rear step, check for
accessibility.
•The recommended dimensions for
wheelhouses on conversions are outlined in
Figure. E74528, E74529 and E74530.
However, in case a specific conversion
requires wheelhouse dimensions smaller than
described below, please consult the Vehicle
Converter Advisory Service (VCAS@ford.com)
for an individual solution.

5.1.4 Chassis Cab
When carrying out vehicle
conversions/modifications the following points
should be considered:
•Make sure that all of the reinforced holes
provided in the chassis frame top surface are
used for full length bodies or sub-frames, see
Figures E74860, E74861, E74862, E74863
and E74696.
•Make sure that the vehicle structural integrity
is maintained
•Do not drill into closed frame body members.
•Make sure that the design for the body
alterations or additional structure disperse the
load evenly.
CAUTION: Uneven load distribution
could result in unacceptable
handling and braking
characteristics.
•Re-paint metal edges after cutting or drilling.
All metal edges must comply with exterior and
interior protection legislation.
•All fixings through the floor, sides or roof must
be sealed.
Refer to: 5.10 Corrosion Prevention (page 221).
•Ensure that any additional equipment in the
vicinity of the fuel tank will not damage the
tank in a crash condition.

WARNING: Excessive heat can build
up from the exhaust system, in
particular from the catalytic
converter. Ensure adequate heat
shields are maintained.
NOTE: The reinforcement plate in cab back
panel to chassis member area must be
maintained, please refer to Figure E74543.
Please refer also to the following Illustrations:
•Refer to: 5.11 Frame and Body Mounting (page
222).
(Figure E74576 - Self Supporting Body
Structure, Figure E74517 - Frame Drilling and
Tube Reinforcing and Figure E74577 - Low
floor Standard Chassis Frame).
•Refer to: 5.7 Roof Opening Panel (page 214).
(Figure E74678 - Driver's Standing Head
Room).
For any conversion structure attached to or
mounted onto the base vehicle cab structure the
following applies:
•Ensure that neither the conversion structure
nor the existing vehicle structure get
pre-loaded by the assembly process.
•Adhesive jointing is recommended but should
be supplemented with mechanical fasteners
to prevent initial peel and long term failure.
•Spread bolt loads to minimize local stress.
