=ball joint reamer...reams out the steering knuckle to accept a bigger balljoint.

It's like a drillbit...a $100 drillbit.

 

[Primalzer]

OOHHHH, yeah i don't have any tools.

 

[Poopshinanigans]

Autozone doesn't have it on their "borrow a tool" list? Its pretty much you buy it, use it and return it without any questions asked.

 

[Poopshinanigans]

But if you need a to "borrow a tool" Primalzer and I are available anytime.

[Poopshinanigans]

I'm implying that we are both tools. Mac, Snapon, definately higher than craftsman. I know, we're Duralast, BUILT TO LAST DURALAST!!!

Not sure about the description 2" per foot but if your talking about some kind of tapered reamer then i may have one at work. I would need the ball joint that you are installing to get an accurate size/ dimension

 

[Ron Vogel]

Well, I'm making some new control arms. The new ball joint is way beefier than the stocker even though it's the same taper. So I need to ream it out to accept it.

Should be a 10 degree taper.

"The 2" per foot reamer, also known as a 10° tapered reamer, works with our ball joints 917-20032, 917-20038, 917-20038-1, and 917-20039. Measures a little more than 1/2" at the small end and 1" at the big end.

2" per foot (10 degree). "
