BC0979 Posted March 28, 2023 Author Share Posted March 28, 2023 I totally agree that they should not have any pilot hole. Would have been much easier to mark and drill a nice hole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC0979 Posted March 28, 2023 Author Share Posted March 28, 2023 Update I used the bushing and a dab of fingernail polish on the end, inserted it on the elevator flange side, this produced a perfect ring mark You can see that the true center is right on the edge of the existing holes. I will end up with an oval hole. This is not good 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty_d Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 Can you remove the kit elevator flange and fabricate a new one? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC0979 Posted April 4, 2023 Author Share Posted April 4, 2023 I reassembled the elevator a different way. Left side first, center hinge next, then the right side hinge. This seemed to work with a very small preload of the hinge, a lot less than the center. The elevator seems to rotate freely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
