    Check out this link about the jury strut. I ended up cutting the jury strut a little and extended the bracket that attaches to the spar. This way the bolt was below the fabric. Worked out with no problems.

    Sorry, I don't have a pic. The bracket was already mounted on mine. I used a piece of stainless steel plate and added it to the bracket down through the fabric. Maybe you could fabricate new longer brackets?

    Jerry i check if it's fit with more longer bracket when i put the wing back to the aircraft...

    Now i fit the false ribs under the wing were the lift strut bracket are and he have a other problem ,,,,the hole will be in fabric to, maybe it is better to dont put any false ribs in this place.???
    there a pic..
