Mechanics here usually use a expanding reamer with a screw on extension pilot and a floating tapered bush.
The tapered bush guides the reamer , keeping it in line with the opposite bore .
From what I have cross referenced so far, a large amount of the early 11/12 cab parts are civilian.

At work I found both style of reamer, but was only to take the expandable reamer as a last resort.
