I figured it was wise to buy these brackets vans sells. I have them all fitted and drilled and went to rivet them in and cant figure a clean way to rivet the bottom??? Anyone done this and have a trick. Best I can come up with is a few screws in the rivet holes on the bottom, but dont like it. Vans tech support is taking to many days to answer my email so wanted to try here.
The issue is the F786C-L longeron and the bottom skin tucking around on an angle leave no room to get the rivet gun in there. I dont want to jam it and risk denting the floors. Great brackets, but puzzled on what I am missing. Tried bending them open and putting in the bottom rivets that way but not going to work. SOMEONE must have done this properly. Thanks.
