Samy,

Are you making your own mushroom inserts and reaming for the transit drag link or are you talking about reaming out the Sierra upright to take the Maxi ball joint?

Cheers Ginge

15mm for the hole is correct, then ream out so the top is 17mm.

Not sure if you have the drawing but it's in there.
