## Discrepancy

DURING GEAR RETRACTION, FOUND LEFT MAIN GEAR FWD AND AFT ATTACH BRACKETS LOOSE IN WING.  PIPER SB 956 HAD BEEN PREVIOUSLY COMPLIED WITH AND PART STILL CAME LOOSE.  THE LOOSENESS OF THE BOLTS CAUSE ELONGATED HOLES RESULTING IN A COMPLICATED AND EXPENSIVE REPAIR.  SUBMITTER SUGGESTS PIPER RECONDITION DESIGN OF THESE BRACKETS TO ADD MORE BOLTS.
