Abstract
A apparatus and method for moving and aligning objects such as machine components includes a plate positionable beneath and engageable with an object to be moved, a block engageable with the plate, and a bolt extending through a bore in the block. The bolt includes an end which is positionable adjacent to the object to be moved and which is rotatable within the bore to cause axial movement of the bolt. Such axial movement of the bolt causes the end of the bolt to push against the object to be moved and to thereby move the object.
