Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Stud installation, where to buy/borrow/rent a bottom tap?

[GOT-Torque]

I am going to be removing my head to have it ported/polished/oringed etc, figured while it was out I could remove the studs and run a bottom tap in the holes (since I didn't previously).



Where can you buy one from or would someone be willing to loan/rent me theirs for a week or two?



Thanks!

Tool shop.



What size? I might have a retreading kit somewhere in the garage that would work. Basically a bunch of bottom taps.

ls1yj,



Thanks for the info, got one ordered.



Judging from your username, your jeep must be a rocket! I had an 81 CJ5 with a fuel injected 5. 0 from a mustang, it was a blast to drive.

Yeah it goes pretty good :-laf I'm trying to get it street legal again so I can use it more, right now it just sits in the garage.
