Just take a steel block, drill a 1/4" dimple in it and use a hammer for the long rivets. Just tap it until the end is smashed. Be sure to apply pressure so the rivet does not back out. For the front ones use a the bolt cutter tool.

I use a 5" vise with a dimple plate for squeezing the rear long rivets. Depending on the long rivet length (there is some variation) I sometimes have to trim a little off. I make it so 3/16" sticks out the side before I squeeze with the vise and that it's 1/16" after I squeeze. Hope that helps.
