## Discrepancy

A LEAF SPRING FOR L-2 DOOR GIRT BAR WAS FOUND BROKEN DURING PERFORMANCE OF FCD 2560-02033, B757-200/-300 GIRT BAR - INSPECT FOR PRESENCE AND CONDITION WHILE AT LAX.  THE BROKEN SPRING PERMITS THE POSSIBILITY THAT THE SLIDE MIGHT NOT PERFORM ITS INTENDED FUNCTION WHEN OPERATED.  THE LEAF SPRING WAS REPLACED.
