## Discrepancy

DURING INSPECTION OF AIRCRAFT IT WAS NOTED THAT THE LEFT AND RIGHT MLG RETRACTION SUPPORT BRACKETS APPEARED TO HAVE A FRETTING CONDITION.  THE BRACKETS WERE REMOVED AND INSPECTED IAW AD CF 91-25R2.  POSSIBLE CRACK INDICATIONS WERE VERIFIED BY MPI.  IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THESE BRACKETS WERE PRE-MOD 8/2049 AND POST-MOD 8/1830 AND THAT MOD 8/1830 IS PART OF THE TERMINATING ACTION OF AD CF 91-25R2.  BRACKETS WERE REPLACED PER MOD 8/2049 AND SB 8-54-34 ON FIELD AVIATION COMPANY WORK ORDER NR 21973.
