ABSTRACT:
A pair of hinges can be positioned on an automotive body for assembly fastening purposes, using a manual fixture that includes spaced pegs for locating the fixture in a desired position on the body. Three or more clamps on the fixture can be controlled to automatically clamp the fixture to the auto body after the fixture has been manipulated to a desired position. The process of aligning the spaced pegs with locator holes on the auto body is facilitated by a stabilization pin carried by the fixture. The stabilization pin and the two pegs provide a stable three point support for the fixture while the fixture is being manipulated to align the pegs with the locator holes.
