## Discrepancy

THE DEFECT IS A FATIGUE CRACK, CAUSED BY BEING OVERSTRESSED DUE TO LOAD LIMITS, POSSIBLE OVERTORQUED.  MAYBE THIS PART SHOULD BE MADE STRONGER,  TO HANDLE THE STRESS.  THIS DEFECT WAS FOUND BY A PENETRANT INSPECTION.  THE LOCKING NUT NEEDS TO BE REMOVED, IN THIS CASE THE DEFECT WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN NOTICED IF THE LOCKING NUT HAD NOT BEEN REMOVED.
