[QUOTE="overboard, post: 378489, member: 6547"] We have used a sledge hammer as the anvil on the outside of a solid rivet, and a bucking bar to tighten/flatten the inside. Two man job, and worked pretty well. If you can access the rivets to be replaced, I would use the solid ones. Also can tighten up loose rivets without removing them. [/QUOTE]
