1. Planning Information
A. Effectivity
B. Reason
(1) Problem: Nut, Part No. 525-124-9003, may lose clamp load, causing the nut to fret the
flange face of the No. 4 Bearing Support (component of Support Assembly (Matched
Set), Part No. 3057005-1 thru -5 or 3057006-1/-2 or 3050860-10/-11). Excessive
fretting could lead to failure of one or more of the T-Head Bolts, Part No. 3000047-3,
resulting in damage to the No. 4 bearing support.
(2) Background: Upon disassembly and inspection of a CFE738 engine, damage was
found to the No. 4 bearing support T-bolts, along with missing nuts and fretting at the
flange face of the No. 4 bearing support. As a result, the following was accomplished:
(3) Action: The torque value of replacement Nut, Part No. 525-673-9003, has been
increased from 85 to 90 inch-pounds (9.6 to 10.2 N·m).
C. Description
This service bulletin provides instructions to remove Nut, Part No. 525-124-9003, inspect the
flange face of the No. 4 bearing support for fretting, and install replacement Nut, Part No.
525-673-9003, with an increased torque value of 90 inch-pounds (9.6 to 10.2 N·m).
D. Compliance
Recommended. The CFE Company recommends that this service bulletin be accomplished
at the next scheduled MPI or CZI, or at first access to affected parts.
