Check with guys at ACT tooling....the last time I talked with them about reams and taps for my solid axle swap project they said if they didn't have it, they'd get it.

Is that the standard taper used to do the 1 ton stuff?  I have one kicking around that should be good still.  Do yourself a favor... and get someone with a really good drill press to do the reaming.  The reamers are brutally expensive (I think I paid better than $100 for one) and if you can't hold them really still you will dull them in about 2 mins.
