Hi Ferg, 
Not got a Manual to hand..... but what you are describing is correct, there  
should be one EUR001 washer embedded in the aileron root rib, the MW4 rod end 

goes over the that, and a second EUR001 goes over that, with a stiffnut. If  
needed to achieve clearence of the root rib closeout, a further washer can go 

under the MW4  to space it out. Make sure that EUR001 washers are  used, the 
OD of those is larger than the AN960 series,and will prevent the rod  end from

coming off, if the ball housing should fail [ ie, the OD of the EUR001  will 
not pass through the ''eye'' of the rod end] I have picked that up on Final  
Inspections, where builders have mistakenly used the smaller washers.
Cheers,
Nev.
