I just ordered a replacement set of brake linings for my Major. The come with rivets.
Where can I get a tool to crimp the rivets.

Check around and see if one of the local Automotive Machine Shops can put them one for you. Most shops that rebuild clutches, pressure plates, brakes, and turn flywheels should have the equipment and won't charge that much for doing the job.

Or just set your self up with some punches, hammer and a vise and put them in yourself.

later days mate,
Jim

I found this on another site a couple of days ago, but can't find it now. The price was about $25

find a piece of bar or a bolt the same diameter as therivet head, mount in vice (vise? ) to act as anvil. piece of tube which will go over rivet shank to pull down. pointed punch to expand rivet. Method : start in middle of lining, push rivet throughhole in shoe face centre head on anvil slide tube over protruding shank and tap down with hammer to snug up interface. remove tube peen over shank of rivet. work outward to ends of lining. another set of hands is useful,tublar rivets "set" easier thansolid ones. the shank on the latter should be trimmed to protrude 1 to1.5 times diameter otherwise it willtend to bend over instead of spreading(a flat punch and/or ball pein hammer will probably do better. that's how a tight fisted old englishman does the job. damned if Iwould buy fancy kit to keep as a workshop ornament !
