Drill a 1/4" deep hole in the center of each rivet with a 1/8" diameter drill bit. This is a pilot hole. With a 1/2" drill bit, drill into the pilot hole and "drill away the rivet heads". A cold chisel may be handy too, and a big hammer. You may need several 1/8" drill bits, they are easy to break. Do not drill past the control arm. Use the chisel at that point. Once the head is gone, punch out the rivets. Metal is best cut SLOWLY with drills... use a variable speed drill.

To replace the upper ball joint on a 1992 Acura Vigor, start by lifting the vehicle and removing the front wheel for access. Disconnect the upper control arm from the steering knuckle and any associated components, then remove the ball joint retaining nut. Use a ball joint separator or a suitable tool to detach the ball joint from the control arm, and replace it with a new one, ensuring proper alignment.
