I have finished my empenage and today attached the elevators to the horizontal. I followed the procedure drilling the hole by using bushing in center bearing. I even called Van's on the subtle differences in the two control horns after mounting them. I was advised, follow procedure and drill where it hits, so I did. The first hole was close to the weld on the bracket and the second was closer, after drilling both to size. It will be close with the nut and bolt. It even looked like the weld was left off at that spot from the factory. Was anyone elses that close? I just want to confirm with other builders that mine is within specs.
