pitman arm and 1 ton tie rod end?

[fiftyfeetup]

anyone ever drill out a pitman arm to accept a 1 ton tie rod end (chevy)? Or anything similar- just wondering if it will result in breakage.

I reamed out JTX's pitman arm on his first gen for a Chevy 1 ton TRE. No problems. The reamer is 1.5 in. per ft.

Ive also done mine. Easy and works just fine.
