Help!  I recently noticed that both inboard aileron hinges have a little
slop that has me concerned.

The source of the movement is the fit between the pivot bushing/bearing and
the hinge bracket on the wing.  Looks to be .015"-.020" radially and .030"
axially.  I have the means to manufacture an oversized bushing to eliminate
the play, but my question is.  Can the bushing be removed without removing
hinge bracket from the wing?  Or is there some other method of tightening up
the bushing?

Thanks,

Dave
