## Discrepancy

DURING A 100 HOUR INSPECTION, A VISUAL INSPECTION FOUND A BROKEN BOLT ON THE RT MLG. THE BOLT ATTACHED THE LOWER PART OF THE SHOCK ABSORBER TO LANDING GEAR LEG. THE PN OF THE BOLT IS MOST LIKELY 532.10.12.110. THERE IS A LATER PN 532.10.12.205 BUT THIS WAS PROBABLY NOT THE PART INSTALLED. THEIR WAS NO MARKING ON THE BOLT ITSELF MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE THE PN. THIS PROBLEM WAS PREVIOUSLY ADDRESSED BY AD 04-06-05 AND SB 32-015, BUT THIS AIRCRAFT AND SN OF THE LANDING GEAR IN QUESTION ARE WELL BEYOND THE AFFECTIVITY OF BOTH THE AD AND THE SB.
