Thanks to Chuck and everyone else for all the reamer advice, looks like I can 
buy one here in the UK, if not in the states.

 polishing a non precision hole as it wil  not afford a precision finish on
 the hole from 1 end to another .  most king pin bushings are reamed to a
 hand fit by a machinist.  unless you posess a "factory" reamer that is
 designed to do only (let's say) sprite king pin bushings.  then it would be
 a one pass operation and it would already be the correct tolerance for a
 "factory" fit ready for assembly.
