Im currently connecting up my elevator control tubes ( pushrods). The plans call for 2 washers to be installed, 1 each side of the heim joint ( see picture attached). The fitting that the heim joint slides into doesnt have enough spacing for one washer, let alone one each side as the plan indicates.
Im assuming that I have to expand (force) the fitting open enough to allow those 2 small / thick washers to be installed ? If the washers are 60 thou each thick, this means I have to expand the fitting by almost 1/8". Sounds butcherous.
