Abstract
A two-piece complementary retaining clip is used to locate and position the end of a shaft passing through a housing. One portion of the clip features a hollow interior including an edge used to engage the shaft. The second portion of the clip fits within the first part of the clip and included edges complementary with the interior edges of the first part of the clip. The second clip also engages the shaft. A removable fastener, attached to the housing, is inserted between the first and second parts of the clip. The fastener anchors and holds the two clips in place.
