Zusammenfassung:The present disclosure relates to a modular reconfigurable vehicle assembly pallet system (90) and a method for reconfiguring an assembly pallet (90) for use in the assembly of vehicle bodies. In one example, a plurality of modular assembly plates (94) are assembled having vehicle locators positioned specifically for a particular model vehicle. The assembled vehicle-specific plates are easily installed on the universal pallet (90) positioned along an assembly line in an assembly sequence. The vehicle-specific modular plates (94) can be quickly interchanged on the assembly pallet (90) to thereby reconfigure the assembly pallet (90) to coordinate with changing vehicle build assembly sequences.
