Commercial Airplanes 747 Service Bulletin ALERT SummaryNumber: 747-54A2232Original Issue: April 15, 2010 ATA System: 5410 5451 5432 5462 1113 SUBJECT: NACELLES/PYLONS - Nacelle Strut Spring Beam - Spring Beam Mid Pivot Bolt Assembly - Access Door Inspection and Replacement, Marker Installation, and Bolt Assembly Inspection and Replacement

THIS BULLETIN IS SENT TO THE OPERATORS OF RECORD OF THE AIRPLANES SHOWN IN PARAGRAPH

1.A., EFFECTIVITY. IF AN AIRPLANE HAS BEEN LEASED OR SOLD, SEND THIS SERVICE BULLETIN TO THE NEW OPERATOR. IF APPLICABLE SPARES HAVE BEEN SOLD, SEND THIS SERVICE BULLETIN TO THE NEW OWNER.

CONCURRENT REQUIREMENTS None.

BACKGROUND Accomplishment of this service bulletin will make sure both spring beam mid pivot bolt assemblies on the outboard struts are correctly installed. If the mid pivot bolt assembly is not correctly installed the internal lubrication channel of the bolt assembly will not be in the correct orientation. When the lubrication channel is not in the correct orientation, the mid pivot bolt assembly could fatigue and eventually crack or fracture. A cracked or fractured mid pivot bolt assembly could result in the loss of the spring beam load path. Loss of the spring beam load path could result in the separation of a strut and engine from the airplane during flight.

An operator reported that the left and right spring beam mid pivot bolt assembly access doors for the no. 1 strut were inadvertently installed in the incorrect position. It is believed that the doors were installed on the wrong side of the strut during strut modification. The design of the access doors can allow the doors to be installed on either side of the strut. The mid pivot access door has machined tabs that fit the slots in the head of the mid pivot bolt assembly. The machined tabs correctly orient the mid pivot bolt assembly and prevent the mid pivot bolt from rotating in the spring beam. The correct orientation of the mid pivot bolt is necessary to reduce the fatigue on the cross-drilled lubrication channel. If the incorrect access door is installed, the lubrication channel will not be in the correct orientation. If the lubrication channel is not in the correct orientation, fatigue cracks could develop in the mid pivot bolt assembly. The fatigue cracks may result in the fracture of the mid pivot bolt assembly. Fracture of the mid pivot bolt assembly could result in the loss of the spring beam load path. Loss of the spring beam load path could result in the separation of a strut and engine from the airplane during flight.

Inspection of the access door assembly part numbers on each side of struts no. 1 and 4 will determine if the correct door is installed. Installation of markers on the doors will help prevent the inadvertent installation of the doors on the wrong side of the strut. Inspection and replacement of the mid pivot bolt assemblies at the locations where the incorrect access doors were installed will help prevent fatigue fracture of the mid pivot bolt assemblies due to the incorrect orientation. Rotating the mid pivot bolt assembly to the correct orientation, and replacing the access doors at the locations where the incorrect access doors were installed will ensure the mid pivot bolt assemblies are properly oriented.

Boeing Service Related Problem (SRP) 747-SRP-54-0121 is related to this service bulletin.

ACTION (PRR 85901-92S) Part 1 - Access Door Inspection Remove the spring beam mid pivot bolt assembly access door from each side of the no. 1 and 4 struts. Do an inspection to determine the part number. Install the spring beam mid pivot bolt assembly access door on each side of the no. 1 and 4 struts.

Part 2 - Marker Installation Install markers on the inside surface of mid pivot bolt assembly access doors on each side of the no. 1 and 4 struts.

Part 3 - Mid Pivot Bolt Assembly Replacement At locations where the incorrect access door was installed, remove and discard the spring beam mid pivot bolt assembly. Install new spring beam mid pivot bolt assembly.

Part 4 - Access Door Replacement At locations where the incorrect access door was installed, rotate the mid pivot bolt assembly to the correct orientation, if required, and replace the access door with an access door with the correct part number Part 5 - Mid Pivot Bolt Assembly Inspection Remove the spring beam mid pivot bolt assembly access door from each side of the no. 1 and 4 struts, if required.

Do an Ultrasonic Inspection (UT) of the mid pivot bolt assembly for cracks. Install the spring beam mid pivot bolt assembly access door on each side of the no. 1 and 4 struts.
