How do you remove steering case brass rivets?
I drilled out the quadrant rivets but when I tried to bang out the brass case rivets they did not budge. And I am afraid of ruining it.
I want to replace the steel levers with brass levers.
Thank you for your help!

I believe that the case pieces & rivets are all soldered together.
