Looking at replacing my king pins bushes. Anyone advise on the best place to hire/buy a reamer. I see Lilbrands do one at £160 odd plus postage. Not good when I am only expecting to do this once in my life !!

Probably best getting them done given the cost. Also getting bushes in and out can be tricky without a press (not impossible but...). Somebody on here and quite close to you may do it while you wait, chat or make the tea.....I am sure he'll be along soon.

Have you asked the guys at your local Morgan Center, I'm sure someone will have one.
I would also check the top bushes before you remove them , Ive did this job on two different cars & in both cases the top bush wear was negligible.
