Slim,

How much slop do you have in your rudder?  Would teflon or uhmwpe washers
(shims) work?  Would  UHMW polyethylene or teflon film or sheet stock
work better?

See http://www.mcmaster.com/ type  3388 in the search window for page
3388.  3387 has thicker sheets.  UHMW PE is around page 3383

I plan to re-line my pop top slider tracks with something similar to
this:   http://www.woodcraft.com/family.aspx?familyid=902
