Quick change chart rivets ?

[bobdog]

How do you remove rivets on quick change gear box ? Are they drive in rivets or how are they attached ? Mine is a 16 inch 1942 model

I cut a slot with a dremel wheel and unscrew them like a screw , they are drive screws.
I put regular copper solid bucking rivets back in when done looks good ,I think

Derrick is much smarter than i,
i usually knock the heads off with a chisel and drill out the remnants undersize

I don't think so Mike ,I learned about drive screws when refurbishing the SB 10L.
You can get them , msc ,Mc master ,should have them , but you'll need the concave driver so the heads don't get a flat on them.

I did the same thing on my heavy ten, dremeled some slots and backed them out with a screwdriver. I didn't buy new ones though, just tapped the old ones back in, if I ever want to remove them again the slots are already there.

I found the size was fairly near a tap thread for 6-? Tapped it and put in some nice stainless buttonhead screws
