Abstract

A system for locating a first component with respect to a second component. The system includes a bracket and a coupling member. The bracket defines a base wall and a side wall. The side wall extends from the base wall and defines an end remote to the base wall. The side wall defines a thickness and a length spanning from the base wall to the end. The coupling member is fastened to the base wall, and is configured to couple the base wall with the first component. The side wall is configured to be brought into contact with the second component to space and locate the second component with respect to the first component by at least one of the thickness defined by the side wall or at least a portion of the length defined by the side wall.
