:stupid

This is actually a question for you machinists/fabricators.....

I'm chasing a .867 x 1.106 tapered reamer or something close it can be a tad bigger if thats all there is. We got a 1970 Grove crane here thats got a broken tie rod and it is obsolete and unavailable thru any of my sources. Found some tie rods that are close but the taper is off just a bit. Of course I've looked around on the web but can't seem to find anything with the 1.106 big end.

I would get a hold of BudgetBaller over at RRL he is a VP (or something like that) at Rutland tool. They are a machine shop supply company and would probably have it if it is a standard tapered reamer size.

Otherwise you could have one custom ground from a tool grinding company. It will probably cost you a few hundred bucks to have a custom one ground.  

You didn't say the taper angle. Here are a few that go over 1.1 but I don't know if they will work for you.
