ALIGNMENT JIG FOR ACCIDENT DAMAGED BODIES
An alignment jig with trueing-up tools and accessories to
fit both Saab 95/96 and Saab 99 cars has been designed
to facilitate the repair of car bodies damaged in road ac-
cidents. There are two types of aligning jigs, one earlier
version and one later and more up-to-date version.
Alignment jig, earlier version
The alignment jig consists of a rigidly constructed frame
with plane surfaces containing a series of precision drilled
holes. Fixtures for accurate location of body parts can be
screwed into these holes. Special checking fixtures are
also provided; these are placed on top of the locating fix-
tures. When the car is set up on the alignment jig, it is
possible with the help of the checking fixtures to measure
any deformation of the chassis attachment points with-
out having to remove parts of the chassis.
The alignment jig is provided with a pair of wheels to
make it mobile. it need not be secured to the floor, but
when in use it should be placed on a level surface with
the wheels removed.

fastening both ends of the anchor chain to two of the
legs of the jig in such a way that tension will be ap-

3. Place the pressure cylinder against the pressure beam
and alignment jig, first locating it laterally with re-
