I took one apart and can measure the hole size and thichness needed. I woul them check with a supplier like McMaster Carr to see if they carry a replacement. If you do not have them you will need rivet punches to install new rivets. Why do you need to remove them? I mask off that base and powder coat them assemblied. @sixaddict Bruce |
