Default Asw19 rudder bolt (evil)

Does anybody know an easy trick to install the bottom bolt in the rudder of an ASW19? How do you get that blasted bolt in there so you can drop it down into the bottom hinge?


If it's the same as some other Schleicher rudders I've sworn at:
Hold the bolt near the bottom with long needle nose pliers. Access through the cutout in the right side of the rudder with the rudder hard left. If it works the first time, buy a lottery ticket.
