Attaching Flap to Wing

Dwg 14 shows a pressfit bushing to 925A Brkt. This bushing as supplied is 0.25 inches long and would span the full with of FL 907 hinge bracket pair.
I suspect that Van's wants me to drill out the 1/4 inch holes in the 907 bracket to the 3/8 inch diameter of the supplied bushing.
I have certain reservations of aluminum revolving around steel or bronze bushings. I do not like the plan set up for this area. Any assistence is appreciated.
PS Bag 1789 @ has 4 press fit 3/16 ID bearings no Idea what they are for in regards to wing as the ailerons are already completed with these bearings ? :confused:
 
When you press the bushing into the brackets they will not rotate. They are way too tight. Thus, you shouldn't need to worry about any wear in this area that would lead to corrosion. Good luck.
