Brake Rivet Problem
I am trying to replace the brake linings on my Cherokee. I have had new
linings and brass rivets for some time now, along with a rivet tool. The problem I'm having is that the rivets aren't forming a decent head, but are simply being "squashed" more or less. They are spreading slightly, so the result is a tight fit, but I don't think that they're spreading enough to form an adequate head. The holes in the backing plates do not look oversized, and I am using a brake rivet tool, so I'm not sure of the problem. Any suggestions? Thanks, JKG |
