As I start my fuse and fit all my firewall parts to the aft side of the firewall, everything fits fine until I ran into a problem with #WD-803 on both sides. The holes in the base are correctly spaced. However, the welded on upright part of the piece seems to be attached about ¼” out to far. It takes considerable effort to get the part into place so that the clecos can be inserted thru the parts and into the firewall. When it is attached it pushes the pre-bent flange on the F-801E-R and L out past the edge of the firewall. Something seems very wrong here……as I have learned since the start of this project, if it don’t fit, you probably have the part upside down or backwards. I think there may be more to this one…..……
I have spoken with Vans and we aren't on the same page, he said to just shim it.....#@$^%&7^%$ .....I need more help......
this is with the part just snugged up as close as it will go without force:
this is with the part forced into place.....a lot of force!
