Default Cabane Brackets

Thanks for the help with the updates. I have and updated kit so much of it does not matter but I will glass & Pin the firewall.

I have a question and I've read the manual and am not getting the picture. On the top wing the 90 brackets "D" say they must be together and they are but the other two Brackets "C" (ones in the back) are not together. I used the predrilled holes and still have a 1/16" gap between them. The Bold face important note only address the "D" brackets. Should the "C" brackets be together? Also my cabane struts don't really line up that well. I can put the bolt through but I can tell it is stressing the wood screws a bit. I think the right side of the fuselage screws are just a bit forward of the left ones. (Maybe a 1/32" or so) See the attached picture.

Thanks for your help
