101 Clutch basket studs

    I hit a snag on assembling my transmission this weekend. I had the wrong clutch basket for the 101 transmission. I have the correct one but the studs are a mess. It looks like something went through it and trashed the studs. My question is, If I buy new studs from Walker, Who can or how do I swedge the studs in the basket without them coming out? Does anyone have a source for this operation? Any advice will be welcomed.

    Walker would give you instructions. I think they are cold riveted in place. The important part is the fit in the holes, I think they are lightly pressed in, not slide fit.

    The studs have a shoulder, so the rivet part is thinner than the stud itself. The studs are quite weak and soft so when I got the new studs in hand, I would try to wiggle and break off the studs and use a dowel to pound out the remaining part from the inside. If that doesn't work I'd go for the more conventional drilling and grinding, but that can damage the seat and hole.
