Rotated section stabilizer

1. A product comprising:

a section stabilizer;

wherein the section stabilizer includes a base structure;

wherein the base structure is attached to a vertical support;

wherein the vertical support is attached to a lateral support pin, wherein the lateral support pin is constructed and arranged to provide lateral support to a hollow section, and wherein the base structure includes a planar upper portion and a planar lower portion;

wherein the planar upper portion is constructed and arranged to be inserted into a hole in the hollow section of a vehicle structure; and

wherein the lower portion extends a distance greater than a diameter of the hole in the vehicle structure.

2. The product of claim 1 wherein the lower portion of the base structure is rectangular.

3. The product of claim 1 wherein the lower portion of the base structure is circular.

4. The product of claim 1 wherein the lower portion of the base structure is constructed and arranged to accommodate an underbody bracing attachment, a jack, or a hoist pad.

5. A product comprising:

a section stabilizer;

wherein the section stabilizer includes a planar base structure;

wherein the base structure is attached to a vertical support;

wherein the vertical support is attached to a lateral support pin, wherein the lateral support pin is constructed and arranged to provide lateral support to a hollow section; wherein the lateral support pin is cylindrical and includes a pair of opposing planar end surfaces; and

wherein the opposing planar end surfaces include a chamfer, wherein each of the opposing planar end surfaces abuts against an opposing side of the hollow section, and of the lateral support pin only the planar end surfaces contact the hollow section.

6. The product of claim 5 wherein the lateral support pin is constructed and arranged to fit securely between the pair of opposing sides of the hollow section of a vehicle.

7. A product comprising:

a section stabilizer;

wherein the section stabilizer includes a base structure;

wherein the base structure is attached to a vertical support;

wherein the vertical support is attached to a lateral support pin, wherein the lateral support pin is constructed and arranged to provide lateral support to a hollow structure; and

wherein the section stabilizer is constructed and arranged to be inserted into the hollow structure via a hole in the hollow structure and rotated so that it is secured between a pair of opposing walls of the hollow structure to provide reinforcement to the hollow structure of a vehicle body.

8. The product of claim 7 wherein the section stabilizer is a single component.

9. The product of claim 7 wherein the section stabilizer is casted.

10. The product of claim 7 wherein a pair of opposing planar end surfaces of the lateral support pin are attached to each of the opposing walls of the hollow structure of the vehicle body via a flow drill screw.

11. The product of claim 7 wherein a pair of opposing planar end surfaces of the lateral support pin are attached to the opposing walls of the hollow structure of the vehicle body via welding.

12. The product of claim 7 wherein the base structure is welded to an outer wall of the hollow structure.

13. The product of claim 7 wherein the section stabilizer comprises aluminum and the hollow structure comprises aluminum; and wherein a pair of opposing planar end surfaces of the lateral support pin are attached to each of the opposing walls of the hollow structure of the vehicle body via aluminum mig welding.

14. The product of claim 13 wherein the base structure is aluminum mig welded to an outer wall of the hollow structure.

15. The product of claim 7 wherein the section stabilizer comprises aluminum and the hollow structure comprises steel; and wherein a pair of opposing planar end surfaces of the lateral support pin are attached to the opposing walls of the hollow structure of the vehicle body via flow drill screws.

16. The product of claim 7 wherein the section stabilizer comprises steel and the hollow structure comprises steel; and wherein a pair of opposing planar end surfaces of the lateral support pin are attached to each of the opposing walls of the hollow structure of the vehicle body via steel mig welding.

17. The product of claim 16 wherein the base structure is steel mig welded to an outer wall of the hollow structure.
