I'm to lazy, What is the angle?, is it 7 degrees or is it some thing different?

It is either 7 or 10 degrees. I've seen 7 & 10 degree taper reamers, but never knew if manufacturers calculated off one or both sides of the taper bore to get that angle. I have a 5/8" reamer on hand and that is what I used to re-ream the spindle for the bump-steer bolt which is way stronger than the stock dimension.

According to the taper per foot rule, I get 1" taper per every foot on the Porsche Tie-rod using those spindle dimensions.
