What are size of the replacement driving plate rivets for a 26?
I have some on hand that “ I believe “ are the right size?
Truth be told I ordered some a couple of years back,
Used what I needed ,….. then lost the packaging !

If the rivets are loose I would recommend you check the plate for cracks as they crack between rivets.

Re: Driving plate rivets dimensions?
Having found many, many driven plates cracked I have wondered if they could be repaired. Has anyone ever tried using the Loc n Stitch method to repair one?
How about welding? Or any other method? Dan

Re: Driving plate rivets dimensions?
I have seen these drive plates with 3 1" welds between the shaft flange & plate.
I like the added rigidity. Those few cracks become irrelevant.
Used drive plates are still plentiful enough @ swap meets for $10.
