I have a ford van pitman arm I'm using as part of a crossover set up. I need it reamed to accept a GM 1 ton tie rod end. Which is 1.5 inches of taper per 12 inches of length, or, 7.5 degrees of taper(or relatively close.)

Any one able to do this local?

eight oh one, eight niner seven, twenty four eighty. Text me!
Thanks Matt

PS; Kert at DIY4X all ready told me he can do it, It's just going to cost a lot more due to shipping.
 
WFO in auburn did mine for 15 bucks. so would cost you 14 for the ride and back and the taper. not a bad deal imo since a local machine shop wanted 100 for it lol
 
My local hardware store sells the reamer although I can't recall the price but it wasn't bad from what I remember.

If you are not in a hurry, I can grab it from you and get it to WFO.
I will charge you $10 because Auburn is a bit out of my way.
Or if it fits in the small flat rate box, it would cost you $10.40 round trip.
It's 5.20 each way.
Or if you are willing to meet with me on saturday as I pass thru SLC I can give you my reamer and you can verify if it's the right one.
I am holding it now but can not confirm.
 
The guy who borrowed my reamer is supposed to bring it back to me Matt, I will bring in down Monday if I get it back from him.

Might just drop it with Keith but thats alot closer than Idaho Falls.
 
I had a guy named Carl from RME, he did it in 10 minutes for 5 bucks! i gave him a ten so he could get lunch.
