Default Re: King Pin differences

There is a difference between reaming slowly, via hand power, and reaming with a motor driven reamer. The manufacturers used a powered reamer for efficiency and the quality of the job. With the right reamer, at the right RPM, the proper coolant and the spindle in a fixtured set-up in a drill press I'm sure I could do a great job, but we do not have that luxury with the hand ream. I'll be sticking with the honed fit.
