That is not a bad idea while I have it all apart, as I have not changed them out yet.  Inspection does not show anything that looks like a smoking rivet.

Just FYI to the group,  the change I settled on for the damper rivets was to use -AD rivets instead of -A.   The tensile strength is about 3 times higher on the -AD.
