[QUOTE="rellis1962, post: 136078, member: 2519"] Well nuts and riv-nuts are all one piece. The back end (part below the surface) of well nuts expands as you tighten the bolt. Riv-nuts need to be installed with a special tool. This tool sort-a mushrooms the back side of the riv-nut. I have used riv-nuts to do other things on my project. Think I may use the 1/4" steel riv-nuts to install my ped seat plates. If that doesn't work then it would not be a problem to change over to toggle bolts or make some sort of access so I can do traditional nuts and bolts. [/QUOTE]
