Just saying....
I am just saying, after today I really hate OEM rivets. There is no easy way to remove them. UGH....

Re: Just saying....
So what rivets are you trying to remove and why?

Oh I removed my radiator support brackets mounted on the frame so I could replace them.

At least you are not doing a spring hanger, then you'd have to worry about bolts not being a direct replacement for bolts. Radiator support is not nearly as critical.
