I am deburring the rear wing spar doublers W907B and C. These are the thick doublers near the root of the rear wing spar. After deburring to get rid of the nicks and roughness of the factory cut edge (using a file and 400 grit sandpaper) the edge distance along the entire top row of rivets on both 907B and C is shy by 1/32nd of an inch.
I spoke to Vans this morning and I was told it was not going to be a problem HOWEVER, I don't feel comfortable with this answer being these are the rear spar doublers. There is no way to deburr these doublers without coming up 1/32nd short. Is this really not a problem, am I being to worried about standards? Or should I replace the parts? Again, replacing them may put me right back where I started due to the deburring required.
