  • Publication number: 20200108765
    Abstract: A variable distance spacer for use in vehicle assembly which includes two spacer components. Each spacer component includes a base and at least one arm connected to the base. The arm includes a plurality of substantially parallel rails depending therefrom. The rails are evenly offset from each other along the arm, wherein the rails on the arm of one spacer component are configured to slidably engage between two adjacent rails on the arm of the other spacer component along a slide axis, and, when slidably engaged, the spacer components are substantially prevented from moving relative to each other except along the slide axis. The distance between the bases of the two spacer components is changeable by varying which rails are slidably engaged.
