There is no mechanical linking between the power levers and the engines. For example; The old Boeing 747-200/300 they have. Imagine – from upperdeck via the sidewall and than below the floor through the MEC engines. (MEC=Main Engine Control = Mechanical carburator)
Modern aircraft they have an EEC = Electronic Engine Control unit. Mounted on the engine. No vibration felt on the power levers.
This picture give you an idea about the trim cable routing in a 747-100/200/300. It is going throught the aft bulkhead and behind the bulkhead there is the stabilizer trim mechanism
