Revision A, Sep 18/2008
(1) Condition

It is possible for the MLG torque−link apex locking−plate, and the

locking−plate retainer−bolt to become loose or to detach from the

torque−link apex−pin. This can cause high vibration during landing and

damages to the main−landing−gear components.

(2) Evidence

An operator reported high vibration during landing. Analysis shows that the

locking plate can engage incorrectly with the tolerance stack−up of the MLG

apex−joint. Also, an incorrect installation of the locking plate and torque link

apex−nut was found on in−service aircraft.

(3) Objective/Benefit

This service bulletin gives the procedure to make sure that the torque link

apex−pin is installed correctly, and gives the procedure to do the

replacement of the torque−link apex−nut. The new torque−link apex−nut will

make sure that the locking−plate retainer−bolt is always fully engaged on the

torque−link apex−pin.

C. Description

This service bulletin is divided into two parts: PART A and PART B.

PART A − Inspection of the Torque−Link Apex−Pin

Circuit breakers are opened. The Goodrich service bulletin is done. The circuit

breakers are closed.

PART B − Replacement of the Torque−Link Apex−Nut

Circuit breakers are opened. The Goodrich service bulletin is done. The circuit

breakers are closed.

D. Compliance

Recommended Service Bulletin.

For Aircraft 10003 thru 10223 and 15001 thru 15035, 15038, 15039 and, 15042
