No! William ..NO SLOT OUT OF ANY RIB, PLEASE. Just a scallop out of
the close out air upper surface. The Rib is one of the most stressed
items in the wing do not encroach into it.

Ah I see yes - I meant the pip pin not the lift pin. So you do have
to cut a slot out of the closeout rib.
it sounds as though hole will have to tapped out a little.
Thanks

Hi! William
Please don't consider me an authority but in the absence of any one else
replying ....!
I'm bemused by question 1?
Do you mean the rear lift pin locking pip pin is vertical?
If so, you get it out by pulling it vertically upwards and you will need
to cut a hole eventually through the wing to fuselage fillet fairings so
at this stage you will need to relieve it's clearance through the
inboard upper surface of the wing closeout which when the fairings have
been fitted you may well need to open out . The pip pin travels
vertically or parallel to the rib. The lift pin is "normal" to the root
closeout rib.
2. Have you used a no 3 plug thread tap all the way into the hole ?
because it sounds to me the threads aren't tapped deep enough? Otherwise
try freezing the pin it may shrink it a "nats".
