Wow Bobsta!   I have never heard any 'boings' in my 3/16" aluminum rivets. 
Maybe it is because of my roll cage design. I have two legs planted on each of 
my wheel well intrusions.

BTW, I had a TR250 follow me home. It has a roll bar that could be recycled 
into another TR4/TR250/TR6....if I can ever plow through the snow long enough 
to dismantle it.
