My brand new reamer does not want to bite worth of a damn... Does anyone know of any shops in OC that might be able to ream out a pitman arm for me on the spot? I need it done tomorrow.
Thanks

Btw, not all snapon reamers were created equal. I got one at home that just will not BITE. Paul's laughed at the pitman arm and in about 10 minutes I had my pitman arm done.

The same one I used on my Pitman??? Maybe its operator error?Kejtar said:
Seriously though....I used that on my pitman and it worked beautifully. Is there a difference in metals between a stock 88 arm and a new ZJ?

Hmm when I got the reamer home it looked like it was never used. I actually thought that you gave me one right after you swapped it out and it was never used. When I took it to the pitman arm it didn't do a damn thing. Took it over to Paul's place, his reamer (same model) went through the pitman arm like through butter.....
Oh yeah, it'd be tough for it to be operators error as I was working on it both at my and Paul's place

You got me? That is the one I did the MJ pitman with. I switched it before I did my cutting, but I was VERY careful not to damage it for you.
Don't know what the problem could be?????
