Best way to get out frame rivets? I need to remove 6 of them. I can't get a 4" grinder to them. Drill or die grinder?

It's on the K5, broken shock mount. 100lb tire/wheel combos apparently get them eventually.

Actually, I tried to post on Colorado K5 club, but it costs $24.95 to join. Must join before you can post anything.
