Help Help !!!!!!!
Help, I need the use of a reamer (1.5 in. taper per ft.) to do my spindles. I am looking to borrow(rent) or pay to have it done. I live in N.E. Michigan about 4 hr north of Detroit. Any help would be appreciated.

Why do you need a reamer?
Reason I ask is I thought I needed one and found I had the wrong tie rod ends for my Mustang II spindles and Flaming River Cobra rack. Finally found the right tie rod ends at Flaming River and everything fit together perfectly.
The other option is to buy heim joints for your tie rod ends as in a bump steer kit, and drill out your steering arm to 1/2" for the bump steer bolt to fit.

Take spindles to a race car chassis shop. Simple job.

around this area there ain't no such place, I'm an oddball because I play with cars. If you don't hunt,fish or play golf youre considered strange in these parts.
The closest race shop is about 3hrs south of here,I think I will be purchasing one for myself after Christmas unless I find one before.

Thanks for all the help guys, I borrowed a reamer today and the spindles are done now I'm waiting for the guy to finish the inserts for my suspension so I can continue on.
