I'm wanting to install a sway bar and need to get the rivits out to do so.

Thanks for your help

Cody what I have learned with trucks rivets is that you need to make sure that you have ground the head off so that you can see the hole / ring then sometimes you will have to great it up them beat it out with a center punch. that's it there is really no easy way to do it.
