Has anyone done a T5 update and install of the T5 transmission in a 60-66 truck and have you put miles on it and have good experience driving it on a 2WD truck?

My goal with my project is to keep my C20 a 3/4 ton rated truck but have better driving on the freeway. I'm thinking about keeping my full floating Eaton axle (Converted to a '72 4:10 ratio for 2WD truck) and swapping out the transmission instead of swapping the axle out to a Dana 70 or something like that.
Would the T5 handle towing? Or do I keep the SM420 or go to SM465 and swap out the rear axle?
