Re: 1962 Gmc dump truck
Glad to see I am not the only guy busting rivets. I use an 8# and a cold chisel. Takes 5 or 6 hits and pop.

Re: 1962 Gmc dump truck
Yeah I thought I was the only one taking rivets out what a job!!!
I think mine might be going to some thicker metal the mainframe is 5/16 thick the outer frame is a 1/4 " and then the suspension is about 5/16 it also has a inter frame where the suspension is another 1/4 " The only way I can get them out is to cut their heads off with a scarfing tip and get the rivet red-hot and pound them out , the two frames and the suspension brackets it's a little over 1" thick, Could almost use you and that big sledgehammer and your punch LOL Last edited by Donny; June 20th, 2014 at 03:00 AM.

Re: 1962 Gmc dump truck
Well got a little more done this weekend rear bogies are out , rivets for a pain in the but
The ones on the hangers for the suspension they have shoulders on them the only Way to get them out is to drill them To view some links or images in this forum your post count must be 1 or greater. You currently have 0 posts. Maybe you should introduce yourself with a new topic?
