[QUOTE="Getzapped, post: 495963, member: 32769"] Hi all. I'm new to the forum and I have tried searching already with no luck. My problem is I purchased a 14 ft flat jon. Its in pretty good shape but the transom is original and needs replacement. Through the transom are very long rivets. Its brazier head on outside and washer on inside. The transom wood is 1 1/4 + the aluminum + the transom brace. I have to assume these rivets were 2" before being compressed. There were 10 of them. 6 through the 2 transom braces and 4 just to hold the wood to the back aluminum. I cannot find any rivets this length. Does anyone know a source? should I use something else in place of these long rivets? Any help would be greatly appreciated. [/QUOTE]
