## Discrepancy

LOWER RT DIAGONAL ENGINE MOUNT TUBE FOUND CHAFED DO TO EXHAUST PIPE COMING INTO CONTACT WITH THE TUBE, THIS HAPPENED DO TO THE CLOSE PROXIMITY OF THE EXHAUST SYSTEM TO THE MOUNT.  CORRECTED BY REPOSITIONING EXHAUST SUPPORT CLAMPS.  WHILE REPAIRING THE CHAFED TUBE IT WAS NOTED THAT A SMALL CRACK WAS DEVELOPING IN A TUBE OFF THE END OF A GUSSET ADJACENT TO THE RT LOWER SHOCK MOUNT ATTACH POINT, THIS ALSO NEEDED REPAIR BY A WELDED SLEEVE ON THE TUBE, CAUSE UNKNOWN.
