## Discrepancy

THE NOSE GEAR DRAG BRACE ATTACH BRACKET ATTACH BOLTS WORK LOOSE WITH TIME DUE TO FORE AND AFT LOADS PLACED ON NOSE GEAR DURING TOWING.  AFTER BOLTS WORK LOOSE, THEY ELONGATE THE WHEELWELL ATTACH AREAS WHERE THE BOLTS GO THROUGH THE SKIN OF THE WHEELWELL.  THE WHEELWELL SKIN IS ONLY .040 INCH THICK.  SUBMITTER RECOMMENDS A .063 INCH DOUBLER INSTALLED TO STIFFENER AREA AND PREVENT BOLT HOLE ELONGATION.  THIS CONDITION HAS BEEN FOUND ON NUMEROUS 441 CONQUEST II AIRCRAFT.
