Aileron bushing
There's no way this bolt is going into that bushing. Can I drill it out? What size bit???
Thanks,
Tom

Reamer
Assuming that is the aileron bellcrank for the RV-9A; my instructions (attaching ailerons to wing) indicated that the inside of the bushing needs to be reamed. 1/4" reamer I believe. Read through it again.

.250"
A .250" reamer should give you a good fit.....would be nice if it had a pilot the size of the current bore.

I found this thread when I was at my first bell crank.
http://www.vansairforce.com/communit...ad.php?t=80445
I went ahead an ordered a few reamers for some of the upcoming tasks. I think I bought the ones that Vlad suggested. I already owned #30 and #40 and use them all the time.

Hi Av8torTom
I can be wrong but I think your bellcrank might be installed upside down. Maybe the RV9 is different to the RV7.

Looks to me like the picture was taken through the inspection plate on the bottom of the wing so it is not upside down. You can see the cover plate screw holes & platenuts on the edge and the top skin riveted on.
