You need a 7* tapered reamer. http://www.speedwaymotors.com/p/2918,27_Ball-Joint-Tapered-Reamers.html?itemNo=reamer The best way is on a milling machine, but you can do it in a drill press, you need very slow cutting speed and lots of lube.

Pretty much covers it. Also, check out eBay for the seller "XKUT", he sells the 7* taper reamers as well for pretty decent prices.

I've got a stock ZJ Arm already reamed that I don't need anymore...
