...I drilled out my pivot rivits. The rivets, and the tool, that I recieved were a booger to use and I was never able to set a rivet they sent me.
...so, I took one of the pivet rivets to my local machine shop guy and had him to make me some "bolts" out of stainless steel just like the rivit....but with some threads on the bottom. I then got me a nylon nut and screwed on it. Man, no more banging the rivet for me.

I still need to cut just alittle off the bottom. The next ones I have him make will be a little shorter.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile
