[Elecraft] KPA100 rear panel question

On page 30 of the KPA100 manual, it's stated that when propertly mounted, the 
rear panel should be flush with the PC board.  On the end with the Aux I/O 
connector, things are perfectly flush, but on the other end, where the coax 
connector is mounted, there is a 1/16" gap between the rear panel assembly 
and the PC board.  The nuts securing the SO-239 are flush with the cutout in 
the PC board, however.  I can't raise or lower the panel much on that end 
because the center lead for the coax connector has very little clearance as 
it passes through the center of T4.  Before soldering the leads of J-3 and 
J-2 to the board, I would like to be sure everything is OK.  Any suggestions?

Thanks and 73,

Don, W5EI
