Does any one know what 1 ton pitman arm will fit stock cj power stearing box? or any info about a tie rod reamer where to buy one

I can't amswer if the taper will fit the stock arm on a CJ. Most likely it will have to be reamed out. I used the Snap On R121 reamer when I did the steering on my XJ. http://buy1.snapon.com/catalog/item.asp?search=true&item_ID=8154&PartNo=r121&group_id=946&supersede=&store=snapon-store&tool=all

I bought a reamer from them, but I know they do a lot of work in house. Maybe you could set up something. They are great guys.

Good luck.

1 ton TRE will fit in a J20 pitman arm and a J20 pitman arm will fit on a CJ box. The J20 arm is a bit stronger also.

Alternatively, take the entire J20 box and pitman arm, rework the rag/bell joint and replace CJ stuff. Much better steering.

thanks for the info giong to the junk yard tommrow

If you can't find want you need at the junkyard, Parts Mike has them for $79.95.
I have one on my CJ box and it works great.

If you need a flat pitman arm, look at Waggy arms. I swapped out my stocker for a Waggy and the taper fit fine with 1 ton TREs.

A YJ will fit a CJ and it has a drop.

I used the snapon reamer (R121) and a stock TJ arm-it had about 3/4" drop-the snap-on reamer is good for a few home jobs-but not if you want to do 15-20+ holes.

This one does real well

Good price,fast service and the reamer cut very nicely.

I used a ford F150 drop pitman arm, which came off of an old waggy I had, which fit on my YJ, so it will fit your CJ
