I have built an assembly for the left side of the machine and all the parts. I'm now trying to build an assembly using the same parts but for the right side. In most cases, the parts are mirrors of the left side.

I'm importing the left hand side parts to the right hand side assembly and then going in and changing the X Scale Vector to -1 to create a mirrored version of the part.

I then go in and try to attach the LCS of the parts to the right place, but for some reason they don't match up.

This is where the Lift bracket is suppose to connect to (on the left side)

This is where the Lift bracket connects to on the right side when I work with the mirrors.

The Wing_Lift_Bracket "LCS_Fold" is suppose to attach to the Wing_Fold_Bracket "LCS_LiftBoomMntPnt".

Any idea what I'm doing wrong here?

Thanks
