Aileron Hinges

I'm working on installing the aileron brackets W321 & W322 and I cant find the specs for what type of fasteners are required. Rivets? Bolts? Spacing? I've been stuck on attaching the ailerons for about 2 weeks because I'm nervous about screwing the alignment up. Thanks in advance.
 
Hi Rob,
My brackets came pre-punched and with seperate drawings.
The Dwg/Part No.s are W-322-R and -L and W-321-R and -L.
Give me a fax number and I'll send you copies.

Thanks Mike, I have the drawings and brackets already made. Im just wondering how they get attached to the rear spar. DWG8 doesnt say...or I just cant find it.
 
My Dwg shows (5) 1/8" rivets with 5/8" space, with 5/16" edge distance from the front and bottom edges . This will leave about 1/2" edge distance from the top rivet to the upper edge of the bracket.
The outer bkt that overlaps onto the rib ahead of the spar has another (5) 1/8" rivets.
If you need more let me know.
Mike
