## Discrepancy

LT MLG ACTUATOR CRACKED ALLOWING ALL HYDRAULIC FLUID TO LEAK OB ON RETRACTION AFTER TAKEOFF.  COULD NOT EXTEND LANDING GEAR WHICH RESULTED IN A GEAR UP LANDING.  NOTE, THIS ACTUATOR WAS PREVIOUSLY OVERHAULED ON 04/21/1983 AT 833 HOURS TIME IN SERVICE.  THERE ARE NO SIGNS OF CORROSION OR DAMAGE TO ACTUATOR.  IT SIMPLY SPLIT APPROX 3.5 INCHES LONG, LENGTH WISE OF THE PISTON BARREL.
