Steve,

I asked Roger at Zenith the same question.He said the left aileron with the trim
tab is heavier and will require more weights so they included 2 longer bolts(An3-37A).The
right side (lighter) requires the 2 shorter, AN3-30A bolts.
If you don't have the trim tab,you will have to improvise,either get 2 shorter
bolts or use some type of spacers.

Steve,

I have done two mods now.
On the first one, I bought shorter bolts.
On the second, I used a 10-32 die and cut the threads so the longer bolts
would work.
I guess from Zenith's view, they do not know what your ailerons weigh so
they gave bolts the would work with enough spacers attached.

I just completed the first of my aileron updates and in the course of 
playing with the balance weights couldn't find four bolts that would 
fit the job.
I'm surprised there are not four of a kind AN3 bolts to use.
What has been the required bolt to hold weights and was it in the upgrade
kit?
I've considered the possibility that the two AN3-37 are for the 
"light" aileron and the two AN3-30s are for the aileron with trim 
{which I didn't install}.
If this is discussed in the notes or drawings, I missed it...

Thanks,
Steve
