use the rite tool for the job , or you might as well stay stock
If the taper is sloppy or has edges it stands a much higher chance of breaking the joint.
Here we are not even allowed to pre bolt them...I see no reason why we may not..after all that's how you replace an upper....

These things are amazing, a must have for derby use all around the car. I think after just 1 derby season I saved hours of time I would of wasted searching for drill bit sizes. |

I use them all the time. Very handy to have These bits actually last awhile too if you use tranny fluid to oil them, or any other oil. I have hundreds of bits, but I use these the most. They work best if you're working with sheet metal too. When mine go bad, I'd hop in my truck in a heartbeat and make the half hour trip down to Harbor Freight to make a tool run. |

Use them on everything, including reaming for larger ball joints. If they go dull or break, pull out a new one. They last longer than you would think. |

I'll have to get one. I have one at work that sits on my drill press bit shelf and never gets used. Now I know a good use for them. Thanks guys.

use 7 degree tappered reamers or 1.5 inches per foot. DO NOT use drill bits, straight reams, uni bits or step drill for tie rods and ball joint holes
