[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Triangle Side Folder Rivet Tools?

Posted: 12/13/2011 10:38:16 AM EDT

What are the correct tools needed to install the rivets on a triangle side folder trunnion? I read that the rivets are extra long, is this correct?

Just a rivet tool to do the rivets. There are various ways to do them and are well documented in the tacked threads.

I use a rivet gun and a bucking bar. You will need to make the left side rivets flatter than say a standard rear trunnion due to clearance issues.
