im going to be ordering the parts mike custom steering with the chevy 1-ton TREs soon. Does anybondy remember what reamer i need to ream out the knuckles and pitman arm? I remember there was a topic on the old site that listed the few choices from different companies. I think it was a 7 degree reamer, and the snap-on one was not the greatest of the choices. Anyone who can help, thank you.

1.5" per foot is what you need. The snap-on one is supposedly lower quality and apparently the angle is very slightly off.

I haven't used either yet but I've heard good things about xkut(on ebay) and goodson reamers.
