WTB Frame rivets
Where can a person buy rivets for the frame crossmembers?
And, no I do not want to use bolts. I need to replace several items and would like rivets.

rivets
I looked all over he11 for them about a year ago. Finally gave up. I found smaller ones at a tractor supply place. The only place I didn't try was a GM dealer.

Frame rivets
I got mine from Ed Cooper at "MOTHER TRUCKERS" # (941) 756-4905
I only needed four of them, so Im pretty sure he still has some. |

! made a tool out of 3/4 round stock with the correct cove to fit the rivets contour when set, we use in an air chisel and a frame clamp that hooks over the top edge on the outside of the frame to hold the hot rivet while i beat it in to place.
