Part number for door latch assembly insert

[RideOrFly]

I'm needing a new insert (part #31 in the illustration) for my door latch assembly. I'm confused as to exactly which part # I'm needing from the list...part #914028-015 and part #310304-005 are both called "insert" and there are no notes distinguishing between the two. Any ideas? Plane is a 1979 M20J, S/N 24-0833.

You need to look at the indentations (. .. ...) in the 12345 Nomenclature column. These are used to indicate that a part is used in a next higher assembly.

For example:

INSERT 914028-005 is part of LINK ASSY 310304-013 which is part of LINK ASSY, LATCH 310304-503 which is part of DOOR ASSY, CABIN 340124-513.

So, apparently LINK ASSY, LATCH includes two LINK ASSYs each with an INSERT. It's not clear from the drawing what these parts are and you don't describe exactly what you need. But in this case, the best approach is to contact Frank Crawford at support@mooney.com. Frank can access the engineering drawings and help you figure out what part to order through a MSC.

Ah, I see. Makes sense now. Thank you, sir.
