1. Outer bodies: Form the exterior panels
2. What outer bodies are usually bolted on?: Fenders doors, hoods and deck lids
3. What outer bodies are usually welded or bonded on?: Quarter panels and door skins
4. Why is it important that the exterior panels be replaced properly?: So that the
consumer is satisfied, that the vehicle meets pre-loss condiotnd so that the vehicle systems work properly
5. What is an advantage of bolted on panels?: They offer technician room to make adjustments
6. What size the disadvantage of a tighter build tolerance?: There is less room for
adjustments
7. What is the downside to having less room for adjustments?: There is less room for
error
8. What is the build tolerance of many modern vehicles?: Less than 1 millimeter
9. What is the purpose of applying multiple layers of 2 inch masking tape to the
undamaged panels?: To protect adjacent undamaged panels
10. How is this tape applied?: It is applied in a way that it will partially cover the gap between the two panels
11. What size the first decision made when assessing a repair?: Determining the substrate
of the outer body
12. What can you use to determine if the substrate is steel or aluminum?: A magnet
13. Name 4 downsides of aluminum panels: 1)They are expensive to purchase and replace.
2)They also don't lend themselves to straightening techniques.
3)They don't have "memory" and don't readily return to their former shape.
4)They also crack more easily.
14. What are doors skins made of?: Sheet metal or plastic that is slightly larger than the door frame
15. What should be done if the door skin has been severely damaged?: It should be
replaced
16. Should a damaged door intrusion beam be straightened?: No- under no circum-
stances
17. What should be done if the ultra-high strenuous steel door intrusion beam
is damaged ?: The door beam must be replaced following the manufacturers guidelines
18. What does UHSS stand for?: ultra-high strenuous steel
19. What should you do if you can't with certainty identify the steel type of a
part?: Treat it as high strength steel
20. What forms a hem flange?: The edges of a metal door skin which wrap around the door frame
