newer version wing build

I have a Jr. Skylark kit that is several years old BUT newer than the wing build document in this database. Where do the parts circled in the picture go? (and is there a newer version of the wing build document I can load on here?)

P-Jay

Here's my 19th WillyNillies build, the P-Jay. All ready to go and awaiting maiden! I did decide to go ahead without an active rudder. I have a second P-Jay kit so I might do active rudder on that kit. One thing is certain, I should darned well be able to SEE it! :lol: For anyone who has built one of ...
