I thought one of the kits that Moss sells was pre-reamed.
A couple things you can do.
1) Buy the whole spindle done already, the kingpin is installed and
ready to go.
2) Take the kingpins and spindles into a shop. It's a little over an
hour job for them. Cost you $100. That's what I ended up doing.

Mine is a multilayer type. I just use in the winter. It's actually one
from my old Isuzu Impulse Turbo. It fits surprisingly well. The mirror
pockets are in the wrong place, but they aren't needed.
