ABSTRACT:
Method and arrangement for providing a front assembly of a heavy vehicle (1), which front assembly interacts with a front portion of a longitudinal frame (10) of a vehicle, and in which there is included an underrun protection that has a stiff, force-absorbing beam structure (5). The beam structure (5) is equipped with at least a first fastening member (18) which is arranged to interact with at least one second fastening member (20) arranged at the front frame part of the vehicle (1), with the first and the second fastening members being arranged, during assembly, to guide the beam structure (5) to a predetermined non-adjustable position on the frame essentially across the longitudinal direction of the frame (10). The beam structure is arranged to support at least some other components arranged at the vehicle front such as footsteps (6), headlight units (7) and panels (8) at predetermined non-adjustable positions, with the beam structure and the supported components together forming a front module (3).
