How can I keep my sub-assembly from exploding?

skyeparker1skyeparker1 Member Posts: 9
I have a swingarm weldment which is an assembly and have that assembly loaded into another assembly called swingarm complete which will basically have the bushings and caliper in it. What I don't understand is how come the swingarm weldment assembly won't stay together when I bring it into the swingarm complete assembly? Is there a way to make it all stay together?

    Group or mate all the parts together in the subassembly. "Fix" cannot be used for this purpose.

    And it is super powerful as you start using assemblies more and more.  Its really great that sub assemblies are treated as a real object right out of the box instead of something completely rigid.
