Did ya'll pre-dimple the flanges of w707E/F & their mating points on the spar before riveting the doublers onto the spar?

I dimples the part separately. Note that when you do dimple them, make sure your dimple die doesn't hit the bend the part, you may have to grind some of the dimple die away to clear. In addition, the bend angle on the parts will change due to the dimpling. Carefully correct the bend after dimpling.

There are several areas that the rivets have to be drilled out to install other items. example: the weldment that holds the tailwheel spring on. thanks, Bob Thaxton
