## Discrepancy

(CAN) ACFT IN FOR ROUTINE PHASE 4 INSPECTION.  DURING THE PHASE 4 INSPECTIONS, THE LANDING GEAR ACTUATOR CLEVISES WERE REMOVED FOR NDT MAG PARTICLE INSPECTION, AS PART OF A IN-HOUSE INSPECTION FLEET CAMPAIGN.  THE ACTUATOR CLEVISES WERE SENT  FOR NDT MAG PARTICLE INSPECTIONS.  THE NLG CLEVIS FAILED THE NDT INSPECTIONS, AS IT WAS FOUND TO HAVE A CRACK AT THE TOP OF THE THREADED PORTION.  A SERVICEABLE NLG ACTUATOR WAS OBTAINED TO REPLACE THE OLD NLG ACTUATOR AND ITS CRACKED CLEVIS.
