71 Green 454

In 1976 I removed my left rear rotor to replace the bearings and I had to remove the rivets, no problem. Now, 33 years later I had to remove the right rear rotor to replace broken parking brake shoe springs. I drilled out the rivet heads to remove the rotor, got one of the rivet studs out of the spindle with a lot of work. I don't remember it being that hard to do when the car was 5 years old.
Is there a trick to getting out the other 4 rivet studs?

Thanks

Just grind then down and leave them in there. No reason to take them out. Naturally rust and corrosion would make them a little harder to remove.
