just saw this on one of the power block (spike tv) shows. they said the easiest way is cut a t in the top of the rivet with a 4" grinder then air chisel with the little auto chisel from sears or where ever. I KNOW HIND SIGHT IS 20/20:icon_confused:

its not that bad doing to brackets for a lift. leaf spring hangers usually are much worse. i took care of all my rivet grinding for my factory radius arm brackets and passanger beam in about 3-4 hrs. but i am well versed in the rivet grinding fun.
