ok, so i found a topic on here earlier and now I cant find it....but it was where someone made their own vent bolt to fit their mopar rear end. I found the specs 7/16 bolt 20 thread 1 7/8 long...my question is this. would a softer grade bolt with a hole drilled through it work? just thinking here.

The original vent bolt had a cap on it to prevent dirt from getting in.

I was thinking of tacking a small fitting with a cap on the bolt after drilling through.
