Fixture and worktable to press a bushing in a carrier

An installation and removal assembly for positioning a bushing with respect to a work piece, said assembly comprising:

• a movable worktable including a base substrate and a mounting structure for securing said work piece to said base substrate;
• a press device disposed adjacent said movable worktable for pressing a bushing member into and/or out of an aperture provided on said work piece;
• and
• an automatic positioning mechanism for orienting said work piece at a press position substantially within a working press area of said press device where said bushing member is pressed into said work piece,
• wherein said movable worktable is automatically moved from a mounting position where said work piece is mounted onto said substrate to said press position within said working press area of said press device,
• wherein said work piece is a differential carrier having an ear portion formed with said aperture for receiving said bushing member, said mounting structure grips a flange formed on said differential carrier to secure said differential carrier on said worktable, and
• wherein said substrate pivots through an angle greater than 90 degrees to orient said ear portion within said working press area for said press device.
