## Discrepancy

UPON REINSTALLATION OF RUDDER AFTER INSTALLATION OF SB, FOUND THAT THE RUDDER TRAVEL WAS APPROXIMATELY 25 DEGREES IN LIEU OF 30+/-DEGREES IAW MM.  WHEN TRAVEL WAS CORRECTED, DISCOVERED THAT THE BOTTOM SKIN OF RUDDER WAS CONTACTING THE SKIN PRIOR TO ACHIEVING FULL TRAVEL.  FIELD SERVICE AND FIELD REPAIR WERE CONTACTED.  THE RUDDER WAS REPLACED WITH SAME PN AND SN 0155.  NO OTHER ACTION WAS REQUIRED AT THAT TIME.
