Trail Gear Taper Reamer

Taper Reamer This is the perfect taper reamer for reaming out Toyota and Suzuki pitman arms for the larger, more commonly used FJ80 tie rod ends, like the ones offered in our popular high steer kits. Our taper reamer is 1-10 (1 of taper for every 10 of length) and is also expressed as 1.200 TPF (1.200 of taper for every foot of length). The reamer is made from M2 high speed steel with a 1-2 shank diameter for drill press or mill and a 3-8 square end for use with a tap wrench. Anyone can use this tool. You simply ream out the hole in the pitman arm until you can slide the shank of the TRE in, tighten the castle nut, and install the cotter pin. It takes just a few minutes and can be done with hand tools.
