A really good rivet to use in this application is the "Marson" SSB8-6SKL . They are 1/4" dia. with a grip range of .080"-.375" and are all stainless steel. I would also recommend to anyone doing the cab support bracket that they rent or buy an air-powered rivet gun. Their is over 100 rivets that...

Now I cannot even see straight ! Thanks Valance, and thanks for putting up with my early senility ! All I got to say is "It sucks to grow old !!! "

Hey Valance, you still haven't answered where you got those nice door window seals from. Those would work great on my truck which as I speak have no seals on them !

It's all good Valance ! Now you have some holes already drilled for mounting some accessories !

Yeah that's the one I have. I wouldn't use it for the 1/2" ones though. 3/8" is really the limit for this tool.

I like the "Marson" lever unit for up to 3/8" inserts. If you need bigger inserts then the manual insert tools are best. They have a grade 8 bolt and bearing to push against the insert. I cannot remember the brand name but any bolt store will know what I'm talking about. The only problem is the...

You need to install just as many "nutserts" as you would regular bolts. I have used nutserts for years now and they are a real blessing when used correctly.

I ended up using the 3M stuff. Just never plan on taking the top off ever again ! My roof is on till Judgment Day !
