Default JD tie rod end taper?

Wallowed out tie rod end hole on a steering
knuckle on a 4WD John Deere tractor. $1800
part. Got a new tie rod, trying to figure out
the taper so I can get a reamer. It's a ZF
front
axle, so it's probably metric. Does anybody
KNOW what the taper is? Looks really close
to 1 in 12, but is it?

Source for a left hand spiral right hand reamer?

Thanks,

Bill
