Frame Rail Section Weld Placement Diagram - Outside, Flush & Inset Splice Options

This is a simple hand-drawn illustration (not a factory document) showing three possible methods for welding a new section onto a vehicle frame rail. A color-coded legend defines the elements: black lines represent the original frame, red lines represent the new section being added, and blue marks represent weld locations. Diagram 1 shows the new section positioned on the outside of the frame rail, overlapping the original frame's edge, with welds at the top and bottom corners. Diagram 2 shows the new section mounted flush with the frame rail, butting up evenly against the original frame's end. Diagram 3 shows the new section inset slightly inside the original frame rail, again with welds at the top and bottom joints. The drawing was uploaded to a 1991 Ford Bronco gallery alongside other sketches of tubing adapters, suggesting it documents a planned or completed frame repair or modification. A reader can learn the three basic placement options for a frame rail splice section (outside overlap, flush butt, or slight inset) and where welds are placed in each configuration, though no dimensions, materials, weld specifications, or vehicle-specific applicability information is given.
