DO NOT weld on any part of the frame or drill holes
in the top or bottom flanges. Serious structural
damage could occur.
Frame side rails are heat treated. No welding is permitted because this
can result in structural failure. DO NOT drill through either top or
bottom flanges. A warning label is also attached to the frame for
information.
Drilling is permitted in the frame web in accordance with a specified
hole spacing pattern. Consult an authorized Volvo Truck dealer to
obtain approved hole spacing dimensions or refer to the Frame Rail
