>>If you leave out the layup that ties the two pivot bolt mounting brackets to
the
fuselage side until after the wing lift pins have been installed, there is just
about enough flexibility in the brackets to realign them (with the wings in
place) then do the layup.<<

This is the approach I have taken, although not yet got to the stage of fitting
the lift pins yet, as I too recognised that this was an area that may require
adjustment at a later stage when doing the initial set-up. 

I also did not flox in the bolt that holds the W16 bellcranks to the wing spars
as this was another possible adjustment area to get the quick release mechanism
to align properly on completion.

It's hard work reading some months ahead to anticipate future potential problem
areas, but worth it, and is one of the areas that this forum can shine.

Peter
