John Deere 70 clutch

[Doug Wonoski]

I am putting on new spring clips that hold the clutch cover on, and was wondering how you go about peening the rivet over so it holds the clip. Thanks for the help

On my 730 I used countersunk allen head machine screws and nylock nuts.

We used the pointed end of a large anvil. The other option we've thought about is slowly heating the rivets red hot and then peening them, but that gets a little tricky in trying to hold them
