    Hi all, so I'm replacing a broken female socket, but in order to do that I have to remove the rivet near the mounting bracket. As of now I figured on using a screw and nut to replace it when I'm done. I'd rather use a rivet, but don't know what type of rivet or squeeze tool. Any suggestions?

    I could and would if I had one. The guy I got the replacement insert had everything but that size. It's a 12 prong one-2 rows of 6.

    Quoted from hoov:

    I'll see what I got

    Quoted from goldenboy232:

    I may have one too, and since I'm 15 minutes from you, could drop it off. Let me look tonight.

    Okay guys, thanks. Hope you come with one.

    Quoted from flipit:

    Dremel tool to grind off brass rivet on just one end, twist apart an remove and replace the bad socket. I use small machine nut and bolt. Probably faster than doing all the soldering. Good luck

    Yes, much easier, standing by with the nut and bolt in case hoov or Mark don't come up with one. ☺

    Quoted from goldenboy232:

    Sorry Chris, I have an extra 2 x 8, 2 x 5, and 2 x 3, but not a 2 x 6 Jones Plug. Hoov might be your best bet.

    Thanks for looking Mark.
