Where to get?
I need to have my sn-95 spindles modified to accept a larger ball joint.
Does anyone know of anywhere that has a ball joint reamer or where I can pick one up locally?
I can't just use a different ball joint or I would so reaming is what its getting!
All this crap about balls and reaming makes this sound like a gaggot thread.

Are you using the spindles on a fox? If you are you don't need to modify anything. Just press the sn95 ball joints out and press in the fox ball joints.

The svo ball joints are non serviceable. So pressing them out isnt an option.
Using a fox lca messes with the length as it's only like 13. The sn95 is 13.75 which is still shorter then the svo.

All you have to do is take the 94-95 spindle and enlarge the hole in it that accepts the ball joint. The svo is larger in diameter just don't want to use a drill bit. The ream is made just for this job. Usally for when a ball joint has to be switched to the larger size.

OK, so it could be bored bigger on a mill. Sometimes you have to use a reem because there is a taper. If they aren't tapered, no problem.
I got a new cell phone (same number) but I don't have my contacts loaded. Let me get his number out of my phone and I'll get it to you.

any 87-88 thunderbird arm should work. the control arms are functionally identical to SN-95 arms.
