Abstract
An adjustable locator includes an adjuster plate that communicates with an upper section of a damper to affect a relative orientation between the damper and a knuckle during assembly. A guide body is disposed at an opposite side of the adjuster plate from the damper, and a shim is configured for insertion between the adjuster plate and the guide body. Insertion of the shim causes the adjuster plate to change the relative orientation between the damper and the knuckle. A biasing device is configured to bias the guide body toward the damper and thereby fix the shim between the guide body and the adjuster plate, such that applying a force to the guide body that is greater than the biasing force of the spring in a direction opposite to the biasing force of the spring enables the shim to be removed from between the guide body and the adjuster plate.
