## Discrepancy

(CAN) WHILE COMPLETING THE 100HR/ANNUAL INSP REQUIREMENTS IAW THE MM, IT WAS NOTICED THE COTTER PIN THAT LOCKS THE FORK ASSY ON THE NOSE GEAR STRUT WAS SHEARED.  UPON FURTHER INVESTIGATION AND NOSE GEAR REMOVAL AND DISASSEMBLY,  NUMEROUS CRACKS WERE SUSPECTED.  PERFORMED A DYE PEN INSP OFF ALL KNOW AREAS OF CRACKING IAW THE MM AND SB 22-32-19.  2 CRACKS WERE CONFIRMED ON THE UPPER PUCK PAC ASSY WELD.  NEW PARTS WERE INSTALLED AND ACFT WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE.
