Copy, then paste the part in the assembly. Then apply a fasten mate and use the offset options to offset by 236.5mm. If the parts are fixed as such then leaving the fasten mate is fine OR you can delete the mate but the positioning will stay and you can choose to fix, group, or do whatever you want moving forward.5 -
