RV-9A QB fuselage with slider canopy. I am trying to attach the front roll bar to the main longerons with the four bolts supplied. There are custom trimmed spacers needed to allow the bolts to sit flat. I cannot find a way to get the rear spacers, washers and nuts installed with any combination of fingers and tools I can come up with. The lower flange of WD-641 blocks access with fingers and wrenches (DWG 42). You can't even see the bolt with a mirror. It seems I have to cut away the offending flange for tool access, or possibly install the bolts upside down with the nuts on top. How have others completed this task? Thanks.
