5G0810136 Volkswagen SIDE MEMB

The Side Member from Volkswagen (MPN: 5G0810136) has supplier-listed dimensions of 112 x 360 x 710 mm. It is typically used within the Body > Panels > Unirails category of automotive replacement parts. Dimensions are provided by the supplier and may include packaging dimensions. Unirails are integrated structural components combining ladder frame and unibody characteristics, typically utilized in light-duty truck and van chassis. These heavy-gauge steel rails run longitudinally, providing primary load-bearing support for powertrain, suspension, and body attachment. Key features include integrated hardpoints for direct mounting of body and chassis components, reducing the need for traditional crossmembers. Manufacturing utilizes closed-section profiles for maximized bending and torsional rigidity. Variations exist in rail height, wall thickness, and cross-sectional shape based on vehicle GVWR and intended application. Replacement necessitates precise alignment and welding to maintain structural integrity.
