Craig:



I had the same problem with my kit (not quick build).  I replaced the

AN3-15As with AN3-16As and used thin washers to get the required thread

exposure.  I am in the fortunate position of having lots of AN hardware on

 hand so these substitutions are easy for me.

 spec

 I think these three bolts would have to be changed to AN3-17A to ensure

 enough length.

Thanks! I'm not surprised that the regular kits can have the same problem.

All the parts involved were made by ZAC in Missouri. But I do wonder why the

folks in Bogota built and shipped it this way.



For small orders like this the shipping from Aircraft Spruce is usually more

than the parts. I'll probably wait till I have a larger order and order -16A

and -17A. Guess I'll add some thin washers to my set of miscellaneous

hardware too. As usual the perfect bolt is an AN3-16.5
