## Discrepancy

THE L1 DOOR WAS HARD TO OPEN DUE TO A SNAP RING THAT HAD COME OFF OF A PIN THAT HOLDS THE TOP RADIUS LINK IN PLACE.  THE LOSS OF THE SNAP RING CAUSED THE PIN TO MIGRATE UP CREATING A BINDING FEELING WHEN THE DOOR WAS OPENING.  PUSHED PIN BACK TO NORMAL POSITION AND INSTALLED HARDWARE PER MM 52 11 21.  INSPECTED FOR DAMAGE, NONE NOTED OPS CHECK GOOD.
