Dzus Fasteners

Post by bookman51 » Fri May 15, 2020 10:30 am

I am replacing some of the Dzus fastners on my 1958 John Deere crawler. They are some that are loose and the fasteners must vibrate to unfasten. After I took the hood off, I see they are held on with rivets (not screws). I assume I need to grind or drill them out to get them off. Anybody got any other suggestions?

Drill is easiest.
