For those who have the Arms, What is the exact info on the Chevy Ball joint that goes in the Arm,

I know there are two versions being one with Chevy ball joint and one that uses the stock dodge ball joint,

Since my arms had the chevy joint in them when i got them, I just need the info on the ball joint for future replacement issues,

Plus right now I need to find out exactly what Tappered bit i need to ream the spindle.

Yes i do have it reamed now but i dont have access to the tool i used last time.

Anyhelp would be great. !

Unibit and diegrinder is totally the wrong way to do it. If you dont know the taper of the balljoint you will need to determine it with some exact measurements, calipers will do the best. Go to www.mscdirect.com and order the right taper reamer and use it on a "snap your wrist" drill until the balljoint sits right.
