One embodiment includes a pivot thrust reverser with a first pivot door with an upper linkage and a lower linkage and a second pivot door, spaced from the first pivot door, with an upper linkage and a lower linkage. A first actuator is located on a first side of an attachment location to drive the first pivot door. A second actuator is located on a second side of the attachment location to drive the second pivot door. A third actuator is located substantially radially opposite the attachment location to drive both the first pivot door and the second pivot door. The first pivot door is configured to be pivoted from a stowed position to a deployed position by both the first actuator and the third actuator. The second pivot door is configured to be pivoted from the stowed position to the deployed position by both the second actuator and the third actuator.
