newbie here again sorry for all the threads but i've never done and primary clutch work before and i was just wondering what the easiest way to install the new rivets in new weights would be i don't have any special tools either so wonder if anyone could give me some tips?
 

Installation is easy, and the best way I found was to simply pinch in the new rivet in the flyweight in a bench vice.
 
If you don't have a vice... you can use a hard surface on the flat side and tap the other side with a hammer. Everyone keeps saying use the round end of a pallpeen hammer, but I used a good heavy claw hammer and had no issues. If you are putting different sized weights in each hole (inner and outer) be sure to install the shorter one first as you won't be able to aim the hammer well enough to hit the shorter one if you already have the other "taller" or heavier one in there... just some advice from the NOW informed! LOL!!! Had a hard time with my first one a while back due to this issue!
