Personally, I have removed those stubs without issue on the Canadian carriers. Warm the sorrounding casting a little first with a propane torch.

Re the threads, they look like they are more than good enough to support what little sideload will occur on the front idlers. Consider just sandblasting that area and using a decent nut on it. You could correct the end of the stub's profile a little just to make it look better.
