Re: dimension problem with rgrid2rcm

You do not have to name the dimensions. No harm done.
The & is for coordinate variables and, by definition,
these must be monotonically {in,de}creasing one dimensional
arrays.

Replace

   output&lat=lat2d
   output&lon=lon2d

with
   output@lat2d=lat2d
   output@lon2d=lon2d

Th attributes 'lat2d' and 'lon2d' are reserved attribute names.
NCL recognizes these and will plot the data correctly.

Please note the use of @ to assign attributes.
