Get a flap wheel for your grinder at Home Depot and you'll be able to grind those flush in about 30 seconds each. Then, like mentioned, they will punch right out.

Also, fit a block of wood between the flange of that crossmember and the bottom of the bed, right next to the rivet while hitting the rivet. The crossmember is flimsy enough that it springs a bit when struck with the hammer and than takes away from the effectiveness of your force.
