## Discrepancy

RT CABIN ANTI VIBRATOR TUNING HAMMER SUPPORT FITTINGS CRACKING IN RADIUS, BOTH FORWARD AND REAR FITTINGS CRACKING AT SAME TIME, THIS CAUSES NOTICEABLE INCREASE IN CABIN VIBRATION LEVELS.  FITTINGS SHOULD BE STRONGER AND MACHING OF THE PARTS SHOULD INCLUDE A MUCH GREATER DESIGN RADIUS IN THE AREA OF CRACK OCCURRENCE.
