[QUOTE="tripleup05, post: 168995, member: 4160"] Thanks for the info everybody. I will probably go with Bassboy's advice and stick some rivets in the holes. I think the diameter of the bolts are about 3/16". The only problem is...I know nothing about riveting. I can run a good bead with a MIG welder, and do ok with an acytelene torch and brazing rod, but I've never held a rivet gun in my life. What should I look for when I select a gun and rivets? I know I've seen them for sale in my local Autozone, and I have $40 worth of store credit there. Think an Autozone house brand would serve my needs, or is it like most tools where you get what you pay for? [/QUOTE]
