Moss king pin reamer

[histerical]

I do not have a need for one, but I was going to make a joke about the cost of this tool in the newest catalog thinking it had to be a typo. I checked the online price and WHAT ? $999.99 ?????!!!!

Doubt they will sell many. I hand scraped a set rather than have them reamed. Common adjustable reamers can do some of the work but not the alignment.

That's why Peter C will do an in/Out turnkey service, set washer clearances and return them to you a few days later for a very reasonable price. Call him.

I sold my reamer for $125 and I thought I charged too much! You can also make a reamer from an old kingpin if you have the tools.

If you look closely at the picture on the Moss website engraved on the tool is where Moss sources it from. You can get the tool direct from the UK and save yourself about 550 bucks.

Or just end to Peter C. and have him fit it.

They may have changed the photo. Thank don’t see it. Do you know it?

Thank you for the information. I’m actually looking for one for an early (74) MGB ( rubber bumper). But I appreciate the help.

Thank you

You are welcome, sir! I needed to do this research anyway because I MAY be in the market myself come this spring. I'll be checking the front suspensions on both the 72 Midget and 72 MGB street cars.

Have a great day!!
