I don't know where to get studs that size, But I found some threaded rod at Mcmaster-Carr that you could make your own from. I think that would be better than drilling it out to 5/8".

Dorman part # 675-046. I bought these in 2011 so I don't know if they're still available but would assume so. good luck.

The original Dodge stud is 2-5/16" long.
The threaded portions are 3/4" long.
The unthreaded shoulder is 13/16" long.

Dorman 675-046 ten-pack will fit.
They are 2-1/2" long.
The coarse thread end is 3/4" long.
The unthreaded shoulder is 3/4" long.
The fine thread end is 1" long.
