The purpose of this TB is to:
(1) Require a torque inspection before the next flight of all 4 bolts used to attach the 4
transmission rotor support strut assemblies to the deck for aircraft not inspected by SOF
AH--64--01--06/07.
(2) Require a visual inspection of the 4 transmission rotor support strut assembly barrel nuts
and bolts, and lower the torque from 3500 inch pounds to 1900 inch pounds, on or before the next 125
hour inspection interval, but NLT 1 November 2001.
(3) Require a recurring transmission rotor support strut assemblies bolt torque check.
(4) Remove and replace all hardware, other than HS5813--12 barrel nuts and
