I know that Don Steger has a method of replacing the rivits with sheet metal screws. From what I know, he grinds off the tips so that they're just the right length. It makes replacing the seal in the future a lot easier. But although he's done it before, he doesn't like doing it. I'm not sure if it's because it's just a lot of tedious work, or if it's not a very safe thing to do. Give him a call though and see what he thinks. -Christian On Sun, 23 Mar 2003, Martin Gutkowski wrote: > Yes you need to drill those rivets out and buy a pop-rivet tool to > install the new seals.
