What was found

DUE TO THE RELATIVELY LOW TOTAL TIME ON THIS AIRCRAFT (1,399 HRS) AND THE FACT THE LANDING GEAR SADDLES HAD BEEN REPLACED AT 739 HOURS, AD 76-14-07 R2 DID NOT APPLY AT THIS TIME, HOWEVER, THE PART IN QUESTION HAD A CRACK THAT WAS EVIDENT WITHOUT DYE PENETRANT INSPECTION AND WOULD HAVE EVENTUALLY FAILED LEADING TO A GEAR UP LANDING.
