Rudder is too long

Either that or my hinges are to close together. I can shove it in but
it's a tight fit and has lots of drag. Even tighter with the plastic
washer Wayne sent me some time back. looking for options to fix it. I
could remove the top hinge and use a small round file to make the spar
holes into 'slots' for a bit of adjustment. I could grind a small
amount off the faces of both hinges. Or maybe I should bite the bullet
and fab a new top hinge that has more clearance. What do you guys
think? Anyone dealt with this? Thanks much,
Joel
