5.    ACCOMPLISHMENT INSTRUCTIONS
A. GENERAL INFORMATION
NOTE: 1. This is an Enhanced Required for Compliance document. There will be a separate
Service Bulletin (SB) and a separate Requirements Bulletin (RB). If an RB is mandated
by an Airworthiness Directive (AD), then all applicable requirements specified in the
RB must be done. For the related SB, some locations are marked RC Start and RC
End to identify the requirements that are restated from the RB. For the related SB,
the areas between RC Start and RC End, including sub-steps and any figures
identified between RC Start and RC End, must be done to comply with the AD.
Therefore, an Alternative Method of Compliance (AMOC) is required for any deviations
to steps between RC Start and RC End, including substeps and identified figures.
For the related SB, the steps not between RC Start and RC End may be deviated
from using accepted methods in accordance with the operator's maintenance or
inspection program without obtaining approval of an AMOC; this is provided that the
steps between RC Start and RC End, including sub-steps and identified figures, can
still be done as specified, and the airplane can be put back in an airworthy condition.
Figures not required for compliance are omitted from the RB.
2. This is an Enhanced Required for Compliance document. The Boeing processes
used to create the Service Bulletin (SB) and the Requirements Bulletin (RB) ensure
that the information between "RC Start" and "RC End" in the SB are identical to the
information in the same sections (Compliance, Work Instructions...) of the RB which
the SB refers to as the related document.
3. The compliance times for the actions in WORK INSTRUCTIONS are in Compliance.
4. Boeing Service Letter 737-SL-51-042, Damage Reporting and Repair Plan/Design
Guidelines, is an acceptable procedure to request information from Boeing for
additional structural repair instructions. The Service Letter describes what information
must be provided to Boeing before a structural repair can be provided.
5. Unless shown differently, these dimensions and tolerances are used:
– Linear dimensions are in inches
– Tolerance on linear dimensions, other than rivet and bolt edge margins, is plus
or minus 0.03 inch
– Tolerance on rivet and bolt edge margin is plus or minus 0.05 inch
– Angular tolerance is plus or minus 2 degrees
– Hole dimensions for standard solid rivets and fasteners are in Structural Repair
Manual (SRM) Chapter 51
– Torque Values:
— Values for structural fasteners are given in 737 Structural Repair Manual,
Chapter 51.
— Values for airframe maintenance tasks are included in Chapter 20 of 737
Aircraft Maintenance Manual (AMM).
— Values for electrical maintenance tasks are included in Chapter 20 of
Standard Wiring Practices Manual (SWPM).
— Values for engine maintenance tasks are included in Chapter 70 of 737
Aircraft Maintenance Manual (AMM).

— Non-standard torque values for maintenance tasks are included in the
applicable installation step.
6. These work instructions refer to procedures included in other Boeing documents.
When the words "refer to" are used and the operator has an accepted alternative
procedure, the accepted alternative procedure can be used. When the words "in
accordance with" are included in the instruction, the procedure in the Boeing document
must be used.
7. Where the work instructions include installation of a kept part, a new or serviceable
part with the same part number can be installed as an alternative to the kept part.
8. If it is necessary to remove more parts for access, you can remove those parts. If
you can get access without removing identified parts, it is not necessary to remove
all of the identified parts. Jacking and shoring limitations must be observed.
9. When more than one OPTION is given for a CONDITION, do only one of the OPTION
numbers. When more than one ACTION is given for a CONDITION or an OPTION,
do all of the ACTION numbers for that CONDITION or OPTION.
10. If the length of any fastener specified in this service bulletin does not meet installation
standards given in SRM Chapter 51, then a fastener of the same specification with
a length which meets the installation standards given in SRM Chapter 51 may be
used. In addition, washers may be installed for fastener grip length in accordance
with SRM Chapter 51.
11. Use the approved process and material substitutions, except for fasteners, in
accordance with SRM Chapter 51.

ual Part 6, 51-00-00, Procedure 1, 11 or 16.
NOTE: Use the steps in 737 NDT Manual Part 6, 51-00-00, Procedure 16 Paragraph 7 to confirm crack
indication(s). Discrepancies in shims can cause false positive crack indications. If an indication can be
confirmed to be at the same depth and radial position as the discrepancy location, the fastener hole can
be accepted. A discrepancy is defined as a cut or rip in the shim, a shim that has migrated past the edge
of the hole, or a gap caused by shim migration outward.

indication(s). Discrepancies in shims can cause false positive crack indications. If an indication can be
confirmed to be at the same depth and radial position as the discrepancy location, the fastener hole can
be accepted. A discrepancy is defined as a cut or rip in the shim, a shim that has migrated past the edge
of the hole, or a gap caused by shim migration outward.

hole HFEC inspection step.
(b) Alternate second oversize fastener.
(c) Whether using primary or alternate bolts, all four depicted fastener locations must use bolts made from
the same material alloy and with the same type specification. Do not mix bolts made from different mate-
rial alloy or with different type specification at those four depicted fastener locations.
(d) Once clean-up ream was done on any one or more fastener location(s) during the fastener removal step,
all four fasteners must be installed in 0.3397-0.3417 (0.0005/0.0035) interference fit holes. Do not mix
transition fit holes with 0.0005/0.0035 interference fit holes at those four depicted fastener locations
(e) Check fastener grip length prior to fastener installation. Adjust grip length as required.
