Default Tiger 2 Alierons and binding problems


I'm building a CGoldberg Tiger 2. I've done the tail surfaces, wings and almost done with the fuselage. The only snags I've run into so far is I decided to use Great Planes pinned hinges instead of the nylon hinges that came with the kit. I can't seem to get one of the ailerons to fully seat on the hinges and now that I get the other installed, the movement is very tight. I used a GP hinge slotter with the larger blades and still dug some out with a knife.

The other thing is that the torque rods are right up against the wing mounting supports on the inside when I bolt the wing on. I had to dig the side of one of the supports out about 1/8" to give me any room for the torque rod to move. Will I have any trouble mounting the wing once I get the bell cranks on the torque rods and servo arms?
