I need a reamer/drill bit to drill my Jeep my Jeep pitman out to accept the large Chevy tie rod ends. I don't know what to look for. Does anyone have a part number or SOMETHING to lead me to what I need?

Try Speedway motors at 402-323-3200. They sell the 1 1/2" per foot for 80 bucks. P/N is 91089411.

I used a Unibit. Make sure you get one of the good, coated ones (more expensive, but still only around 30 bucks). I used one of their bottom-of the line ones and made it work, but it took half a can of thread cutting oil and 15 minutes at the ol' drill press to get the job done...
