I-CAR · September 27, 2023 · GMC
Summary
This article clarifies the quarter panel sectioning location behind the B-pillar in the rocker panel area for the 2018-2023 GMC Terrain. It establishes that the sectioning joint can be placed anywhere within the range defined by the 320 mm removal measurement and the 43 mm installation measurement, provided a 25 mm overlap is maintained.
What to do on the job
Place the quarter panel sectioning joint anywhere within the range between the 320 mm removal limit and the 43 mm installation limit, ensuring a 25 mm overlap is used.
How to use it
Use this document to justify the specific placement of a quarter panel sectioning joint on a 2018-2023 GMC Terrain. It proves that GM allows a range for the cut location rather than a single fixed point, as long as the 25 mm overlap requirement is met, which is critical when defending sectioning locations during insurance negotiations or blueprinting.
