SKYWAY FLANGE RIVETS

(1/7) > >>

Steve P:
It's a long shot but has anyone succeeded in replacing Skyway hubs using original rivets rather than using those ugly bolts . . . what tools did you use to set them

Any help will be much appreciated  :daumenhoch:

Steve

gjs:

lazychubs:

or try ya local skool and ask the metal work teacher

mightynimrod:
Im sure a machine shop would have the right press and rivets long enough to do the job mate - reckon it would just be a question of shopping around.

Steve P:
I have one original rivet here which has been lent to me to take measurements. I also have a contact to get some made in either stainless steel or alloy. The tool I need to set them properly is the problem as I'd like them to look original without damaging the wheel
