    I'm sure it was done to add strength, perhaps in response to some problem that was observed with the 7/16" bolts. In any event, there was no option that would have necessitated the larger bolt size.

    By the way, since the forging numbers for the steering arms are, apparently, the same for the arms with 7/16" bolts as those with the 1/2" bolts, the former could be enlarged to the later if one was so-inclined.

    However, as far as the steering knuckles go, unless the forging numbers were the same for those with either size holes, I would not recommend enlarging the holes if one was so-inclined.
