Good evening everyone,
I was working on my f104 bulkhead for my 7 and when I inserted the close tolerance bolts they were tight. Tight enough that it is going to take a mallet to insert them all the way, and after I install the wings to drill the rear spar and the mount coming off of the fuel tank it is going to require a mallet and probably a punch to get them out.
Is this normal? I know I am not supposed to ream or drill but I was wondering if others had this problem before I contact Vans.
thanks,
Brandon
