i used a grinder. grind off the head, then grind an "X" on the rivet. Hammer, punch and visegrips works great on the side rivets. after you get the sides done, undo the bolts on the bottom, grind off the heads of the rivets in the frame, and a tanker bar between the frame and the trunion will break it loose. worked for me, it will work for you.

John you did a great job on the truck as usual. You continue to shame the army when it comes to painting camo on an MV. That is a good looking paint job. The rivets gave Matt a fit as well. He should have his done by next week. Love your wheels and tires. Bobbing is gonna be so popular that your rivet punch needs to be patented and sold on here or egay. You da man MR John!!!

I was just eye balling those 5 pics again and you did a great job on the black and tan camo lines. How does it drive with the oversized tires? Can you tell it is lighter???
