I am just about ready to final install the wings and was trying the wing attach bolts. They sure are tight! The threaded portion just fits but the unthreaded portion wants to bind. Is this the way it is supposed to be?
What have others done? The instructions say to use a little oil. So do I just oil them up and drive them in with a wooden hammer?

Yes, they are very tight. Once you get couple in, it gets a little easier. A trick my brother-in-law showed me was to just use the flat set on the rivet gun to drive them in. Back the pressure of so that they are being driven very slowly. You can put a thin piece of wood or other material between the gun and the bolt to cushion the hits.

Use lps2 or lps3 for lube, oil will be too thick. The hole is about .0015 larger than the bolt. Another possibility is freeze the bolts and install when much colder than the spar. Just be sure that they are in as required as they will have to be driven out if necessary.

Yes they are tight, but I drove them in with a dead blow hammer and a block of wood to prevent damage to the head. I think the key is Lubrication on the shank and a big enough hammer and sufficient protection for the bolts.

One other thing: install the wing by pinning in place with two of the ACE bolts then start the close tolerance stuff. Freezing should be very easy. I have used that trick on other interference fit items. I did not think of it for this but it will work fine.
