The specification discloses automotive body components including roll-formed components and slip-plane brackets. The roll-formed components may be used in place of components manufactured using other techniques, such as hydroforming. The slip-plane brackets may be adjustably positioned on the roll-formed components. More specifically, the slip-plane brackets are adjustable in two or more dimensions (e.g. laterally and longitudinally) before attachment, so that the brackets may compensate for tolerances in the roll-formed components. Attachment techniques may include welding and/or adhering.
