Pic. 8-9. Rubber seals: 1 - rotary glass; 2 - front door seal frame; 3 - sealant edge; 4 - front door opening seal, 5 - sliding window; 6 - opening of the tailgate; 7 - sidewall glass; 8 - lower seal of the sliding glass; 9 - windshield, 10 - drain tube; 11 - hood seal: 12 - air intake boxes; 13 - front bumper connector
When removing or installing seals with metal frames, do not allow the frame to wrinkle, and corrugations form on the seals.
Seams of resistance spot welding, which are welded to stamped body parts, do not provide a tight connection. They are subject to intense corrosion, especially on bends of sheets with small rounding radii and in places of metal overstress.
From moisture and dirt, the welds at the car factory are sealed with D-4 A plastisol.
When replacing individual parts of the body, after welding and applying the primer, coat the welds on both sides with D-4A plastisol and apply non-drying mastic 51-G-7 (pic. 8-10, 8-11) at corner joints:
- floor sills with front guard (from the salon);
- front guard with front pillar panel and battery tray;
- connections of the front spars with the radiator frame and the front panel;
- connections of the bulkhead with the bulkhead lining;
- rear floor and rear floor extensions with rear wheel arches, sidewalls and rear panel.
Pic. 8-10. Places for applying sealing mastic 51-G-7 (body front view): 1 - connection of the front side member with the radiator frame; 2 - joints of the front spar with the front panel; 3 - connection of the battery tray with the front panel (from the salon), 4 - joints of the bulkhead connection with the bulkhead pad (from the underhood)
Pic. 8-11. Places for applying sealing mastic 51-G-7 (rear view of the body): 1 - joints of the rear floor with the rear wheel arch; 2 - slots in the corner joints of the rear floor extensions with the arches of the rear wheels, with the sidewalls and the rear panel; 3 - corner joints of the front panel with the threshold of the floor; 4 - the corner of the bulkhead with the panel of the front pillar of the sidewall
