I thought I would throw this out to the VAF collective before asking Vans, just in case someone has had a similar issue before.
WD-814 rollbar - fuselage fit. I'm unable to get the correct edge distance for the #12 holes/AN-3 bolts that hold this weldment to the rails/upper longeron.
I have the inside bolts fitted, holding the weldment tight against the rail flange, but I am still short. Drilling these holes as-is will ruin the longeron.
The photos show my verniers sent to the minimum ED required (0.344) and the little mark next to the weldment shows my projected hole centre at the moment.
Has anyone had this issue?
Cheers
Hugh
