## Discrepancy

CORROSION PITS APPROXIMATELY 30 TO 50 PERCENT OF WALL THICKNESS.  THIS PART ONLY 10 PERCENT OF WALL THICKNESS ALLOWED BY MFG.  THIS PART IS MAGNESIUM.  THE PIRTING IS UNDER THE FEL 35, ABOVE THE LOWER BUSHING, THE FELT IS SATURATED WITH MOISTURE AND GREASE WHICH ALLOWS CORROSION TO ATTACK THE PART.  (K)
