This modification shall be accomplished prior to or concurrent with the thrust reverser directional control valve cam modification required in paragraph (b)(3). Installation of a modified cam with an unmodified cam rocker arm is prohibited because of operational incompatibility and subsequent possible interference. \n\n\t\t(3)\tModify the thrust reverser directional control valve cam assembly, P/N's 65- 18225-1, -2, -3 or 65-27438-3, in accordance with Boeing Service Bulletin No. 1931 or an FAA approved equivalent.
