Yakima canoe Gunwale Brackets - 09/05/05 06:42 AM

I ordered a set of 2005 mighty-mites and the Yakima canoe brackets. When I assembled the brackets to the mighty might there is a gap between the bottom of the Yakima bracket and the mighty-mite at the load bearing point.
I called courtesy parts and they said this was normal. Huh? I had to make some spacers to get this thing mechanically feasible. Without a spacer the mounts tilt in putting the load bearing surface at an angle to the load. I will try to upload some pictures.
Has anyone experienced a fit problem like this? Is there that much difference between the 2004-2005 mighty-mite that would cause this?
