Often you can borrow an exact size reamer for next to nothing if you make friends with a local engineering shop - I borrowed one for free just asked!! Gave him a few beers as a thank you!

Ok but i"m done! had a hard time getting the pitman arm out of the steering knuck but got it and didn't booger up the threads. She's all back to gether and working well, however not like new so I feel i failed the test.
Definetly wayyyy better than before but has an ever so slight play in it when i check it movin tire top to bottom. If it were bearing play I'd say the bearings were set perfect but i'm afraid it probably a little slop in the pin
