I am trying to cut the rivets out of the radius arm bracket. It is not going so well. I've cut the head off of one rivet, drilled into the center some and I can't get the rivet knocked out. I do not have an air chisel, but I do have large hammers and some punches.
I've only attempted this on one and the rivet will not move.
I'm thinking it may be easier to grind them all down, pry the bracket lose, and then grind them flush with the frame, and then try and knock them out. But I do not want to be stuck without transportation.
Any advice on getting these stubborn rivets out?
