Manny reams the 1ton knuckles so they have the correct taper. He had a special reamer tool made just for this.
So, if it's a Manny 1-ton kit, the taper shouldn't be an issue.

I should qualify that: shouldn't be an issue if the reamed depth is correct (as per Bill's drawing). If Manny did it, it's likely correct
since he's done a zillion of them and has a special tool for the job.
It is my understanding some of the other kits didn't have the knuckles reamed, so the taper could be an issue.
