So today I was underneath wing wiping off grime etc, and while cleaning the main gear, I noticed both torque links have wear. To me they look like cracks through the paint, but could be the paint wearing along the pivot point of the bushings? Is this normal wear?


Attached some pictures. Appreciate feedback

Thanks
