Re: TXT paint question
I picked up this mechanical rivet gun on Amazon for about $20. It works great and handles the big 1/4" rivets no problem.
If anyone comes across this thread in a search, EZGO has a great video for removing and reinstalling the body: How to Install an E-Z-GO TXT Body and Cowl Also the rivet kit from EZGO is great, but it was short a few rivets for me. I needed a few extra of the plastic capped rivets for the charger port, and was one short of the smaller metal rivets to hold the rear body panel to the floorboard. |

Re: TXT paint question
My rivet gun wouldn't take the largest rivet. I found some rivet washers at lowes to put behind a 3/16" rivet. That worked great without having to find a bigger rivet gun.

Re: TXT paint question
So I got the rivet kit. I was a little disappointed that it doesn't include the plastic push rivets that hold the rear bag well in. A lot of mine got wrecked. I saw some at lowes. I hope there the same.

I have used the ones from Lowe's before. They are not exactly the same, but they work pretty good. |

Re: TXT paint question
Well I got it half put back together and now I see why people get a hydrolic rivet gun. I have two different rivet guns and both of them did not except the biggest rivets. I replaced several rivets with stainless screws/nuts. I got the push fasteners at Lowes. (GM kind) They work perfect for the bag well. I have to go out of state for three weeks, so the cart won't be finished for awhile. I'll get some pics up shortly.
