Make sure that you get the ones that have the knurled barrel or else they might turn. I got mine from McMaster. Part #94020A311

For tiny tabs like the floorboard mounts, I prefer to use a keyed rivnut (available from AS), which has a small protrusion on one side at the top of the barrel. After drilling the hole for the rivnut, I use minifiles to make a small slot on one side of the hole. That slot matches the protrusion and prevents the rivnut from turning so easily.
Clark in AZ wrote:Hey Paul,
How are you guys attaching your floorboards? Sheet metal screws, rivnuts? I'm thinking about rivnuts (don't think there is enough room on the tabs for lock plates) and I'm not crazy about sheet metal screws. Also, what are the dimensions and capacity of your header tank?
Thanks!
