I suspended the washers on a piece of blue tape and moved them sideways into the gap.  Once one side is torqued up you do the same on the other side but add washers and shims in order that there is no lateral movement but movement is frictionless. I took a guess at the amount of washers but until you have them on the bolt it is quite difficult to judge if you have closed the gap.  Needless to say, as you retract the bolt to insert a new shim, the others tend to fall off.  Got there eventually.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.vansrv14.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/img_2608.jpg\" class=\"wp-image-939 size-full\" height=\"2448\" width=\"3264\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.vansrv14.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/img_2608.jpg 3264w, http:\/\/www.vansrv14.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/img_2608-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.vansrv14.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/img_2608-768x576.jpg 768w, http:\/\/www.vansrv14.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/img_2608-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 3264px) 100vw, 3264px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.vansrv14.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/img_2609.jpg\" class=\"size-full wp-image-938\" height=\"2448\" width=\"3264\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.vansrv14.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/img_2609.jpg 3264w, http:\/\/www.vansrv14.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/img_2609-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.vansrv14.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/img_2609-768x576.jpg 768w, http:\/\/www.vansrv14.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/img_2609-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 3264px) 100vw, 3264px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>With this job done, I got on with trimming the smaller longerons.
