Some folks use only 8 bolts. When a spacer (crush spacer) is inserted between the WAF's, then you would only use 8 bolts for both wings.

Just under the nut. The only exceptions would be: - when the bolt head pushes on wood (then you use a wood washer) - when you need to correct for a slope under the bolt head (in which case you make an asymmetrical washer/spacer to correct the slope ). Moreover, just to make your life more difficult, you are allowed only two washers under the nuts. And thin ones, at that. More on that to be found in the Gospel (Tony Bingelis's books) or the Old Testament (AC 4313-1-B standard) Serge Vidal KR2 "Kilimanjaro Cloud" Paris, France "Joseph H.
