    Car-O-Liner®, a leading global provider of collision repair equipment to the automotive aftermarket and certified supplier for General Motors, has now received approval for structural repairs on the Cadillac CT6.

    This project represents a partnership between General Motors and Car-O-Liner to develop a comprehensive 3D data sheet as well as a custom adaptor kit for the proper anchoring on Car-O-Liner’s BenchRack frame alignment system. The collaboration began with the sharing of 3D engineered drawings and images. This information was then analyzed to develop proper anchoring points and adaptors. Car-O-Liner has also processed a complete set of data sheets with measurement points and photos.
