I did some re-work to address that problem, you are right there is no way to fit a riveter in there. especially the 3/16th" pneumatic riveter we are going to use. Here is the product with the new bumper mounts.

Also, For anyone who cares, there definitely is plenty of room in the standard WCP-WCDS for 9mm wide pulleys if you do some reworking of them. I took off the existing flanges and made my own. I don't know if it is a good idea to set it up the way I did but, they fit. I put the pulleys over the bearing on what I think is the low gear? Anyways that means it will need a recessed hole on that side of the pulley so the bearing can be "inside" the pulleys. Also there is no flange on that side, since the pulley is against that gear. Here are some screen shots of the outcome.
