First welcome to the Stovebolt. The right place to get some info on old bolts.
I cannot speak to your question but I can assure you there is at least two or three guys that have done this already. Hope they see this post.... in fact, you would be better posting this question in the Engine and Driveline forum for more exposure and answers.
They may have done it on 1`/2 tons but there is a lot of info here on the bolt.
Good luck and keep us posted and there are no stupid questions around the garage!!!

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile
