If he can get either one of them doneSeems the torque rods will be the weak link after your engine swap instead of the transfer case.

thats gonna be a big ol washer! From what I see, everyone is using what they find in the shop that is strong enough. 3/8 or 1/2” and 6” or so, long enough to go across the outside and stop it from popping off.You could just get some big washers and weld them in the center.
Is welding an acceptable solution? I’m a lot better welder than driller.
Apparently the 5ton bones are made of steel.
Maybe deuce bones, or yours in particular were cast iron? Or something else.
I think there are 30 on the A2s. The A1 trucks have more with an extra u joint and waterpump fittings. Battery operated grease guns are handy.A little black paint today and a lot of lube. Think I found all 100 fittings. Then a little spin to the gas station. Got lots of thumbs up. It was cool!!View attachment 705937
The trunnion bearings for the rears are usually neglected. Don't forget to loosen the cap before you start pumping.Any other fittings in hidden spaces people miss? Under the hood?
