It took a while to get the left elevator fitted just right. A lot of mounting the elevator checking movement then removing the elevator making adjustments, re-installing etc. From what I have read the steel hinge parts have some variance in them that makes all the adjusting necessary.
The right elevator went on almost perfectly right away with only minor adjustments.
Shimming the center bearing also went easily.
