    I drilled out the rivets with a 1/2" bit, but the bellcrank won't budge. BFH didn't work what else do I try? Thanks

    All the ones I've removed were welded as well as riveted.

    I was afraid of that. Guess I'll have crawl under and who the enemy is. Hmm, grinder or BIG chisel! Thanks Guys, you saved me again.
