## Discrepancy

(CAN) UPON REMOVAL OF THE LT FINLET THE REAR ATTACH BOLT (P/N AN3-4A) BROKE. WHEN INSTALLING 4 NEW BOLTS IT WAS NOTICED THAT THE WASHER RODE UP ON THE RADIUS OF THE ATTACH BRACKET CAUSING STRESS ON THE BOLT. WHEN HOLE LOCATION WAS CHECKED AGAINST THE RT FINLET THERE WAS .100 OF AN INCH DIFFERENCE. A SMALL FLAT WAS GROUND IN THE WASHER SO IT WOULD NOT RIDE UP IN THE RADIUS WHEN BOLT INSTALLED. (TC NR 20060920006)
