Vaughn,

If your cockpit module is properly installed, the top of the tank 
compartment should be level.  I leveled the lower fuse, at that point 
and then used a level on the torque tube to set it.  I found that the 
sides of the fuse, at the rear were a bit out, when checking against the 
front.  Once the bearings are bonded into place, they will stay, without 
a problem.  Be sure to spread the two sides of the fuse, to match the 
proper width, before setting the bearings...
