I got one that was recommended by Peter Verdone (maker of the fabled PVD trucks) from MSC Industrial at www.mscdirect.com .  It was item # 08790644 and cost about $36.00.
Note: Because the hole is 5/16" in diameter, it will NOT work on precision 8mm axles, which are slightly larger than 5/16". But it worked fine on all my 5/16"-axle trucks like (stock) Seismic, Tracker, Indy, Webb, etc. And boy, was it needed on most of those!
The photo on the MSC site is not very good. Here's a link to some photos I took when I did the trucks on my park board: http://s25.photobucket.com/albums/c95/h ... unterbore/
If you view it slowly as a slide show, you should be able to read the captions OK.

hanger facing tool?
There's an old thread somewhere I can't seem to locate that had some good pics of a cutting tool (similar to a bicycle headset facing cutter) to shorten and/or face hangers. Anyone remember the location or know what the tool is called? 
TIA
