A support apparatus to support a component such as an aircraft landing gear assembly in an installation location for assembly to a body. The apparatus is adapted to assist movement of the supported component in a direction of a vertical axis to reduce an external force necessary to reposition the component from an approximate alignment position into a desired final alignment position. A method of assembly comprising resiliently supporting a component on a platform to assist vertical movement of a mounting portion of the component to align with a mount portion of the body. A pin having a tapered end portion is inserted through an orifice of a pintle mounting and an orifice of a pintle mount to align an aircraft landing gear assembly with a body.
