Hi all,
This is a question for all you lucky people with a real 737 throttle, can you tell me the dimensions of the reverser lever. length and thickness of the metal please. Pics would be helpful too.

Thanks
Joe.

Hi Joe,

From a 737 CL throttle, but I believe reverser parts are identical to the NG.

Thank you Roel for such a quick response, that's brilliant.

Could I impose on you for one more dim, the actual thickness of the lever, from your images it looks like 2mm, is that correct?

Many thanks again,
joe.

Not stepping on toes, but the thickness of the lever is 3/32" without paint/primer.   The finished thickness of mine is 2.9mm.
Also i measured these on an NG quadrant and mostly they are the same as RW has provided.

Joe Lavery

Thanks Mick,
I had planned on 3mm so that's close enough.  8)

Not to get anal about this.....

Using a precision micrometer on my TQ (non NG) for reverser thickness I get 0.0885 inches (2.25 mm).  Exactly uniform as measured in several locations.

Thanks Fred,

All input is gratefully received,  ;) I just have to see if I can live up the the specs.
