Love that this isn't some 20 min video about some kit about to install his eBay fender flares.

So does this mean I have to go out and buy a Jeep so I can use the Riv nut on it?

Anyway to get the rivnuts back out? All the rivnuts on one fender are spinning with the bolts stuck in them from being old. Just bought the jeep and want to put new fenders on.

Most the time you need to grind the head off of them if they will not pull out with a bolt on them. It is important to make sure you set them all the way when installing them.

Better to just drill them out

I've watched 5 of these videos and each one they jus drill to some random point and say oop it's done. Well do you know it's done. Does it pop? Like how do I know it's done or I dont go to far.

I'm about to tackle this with their hardware, I assume it just tightens enough that you know it's set. Did you ever do this yourself?

Is there a way to avoid the potential issue of the rivnut “spinning” in the hole after it’s installed?
@GenRightOffRoad Жыл бұрын
The best way is to make sure you get it tight enough during the initial install and do not over tighten the bolts going into it.

Great demo! Which is better to use? Impact driver or regular drill driver? What torque level did you set on your drill? Where do you buy those small washers?
@GenRightOffRoad2 жыл бұрын
Neither, you want to do it by hand. If you compress the rivenut too fast it tends skew it and you end up with a bad seat. We get most of our hardware from mcmaster.

@@GenRightOffRoad So, in the video the guy uses a drill. Yet you are saying not to use a drill? Or not to use an impact?

What type of rivnuts are recommended for something like this? Steel or aluminum?
@GenRightOffRoad3 жыл бұрын
All of the rivnuts we use in our builds are steel.

Video popped up as a related topic, so figured I'd watch... To answer your question and others, stick with steel or the steel coated ones. I use these by the box at work and have learned this. Stainless seems the wise choice, IT'S STAINLESS and wont rust. Downside, very brittle and breaks quite easily. Nothing wore than drilling out a new install. Aluminum... exact opposite (soft material) but with the same result as the SS, only easier to drill out.... Pro tip>> add a bit of silicone before inserting to get a water tight "O ring" behind the flange.
