## Discrepancy

BELLCRANK SUPPORT FOUND CRACKED AT THE FORWARD BOLT HOLE.  LEFT AND RIGHT BELLCRANKS WERE NOT MAKING CONTACT WITH THE AFT STOPS.  STOPS WERE APPROXIMATELY .50 INCH AWAY FROM THE BELLCRANKS.  BOTH BELLCRANKS APPEAR TO BE IMPROPERLY RIGGED BECAUSE THE STOPS ARE ALMOST ALL THE WAY OUT OF THE NUT BEFORE THEY CONTACT THE BELLCRANK.
