Not a perfect match, but it would work a whole lot better than a cap tube sized for 1 ton. It would probably work better than a properly sized cap tube.
A good place to find super cheap R12 or R134 TXV's is your local pull-a-part salvage yard. Lots of the newer cars have TXV's in them instead of a fixed orifice. Pretty much all of the vehicles equipped with rear air have a TXV-metered evaporator airbox in the rear quarter panel someplace. The windstar/freestar/freestyle minivans even have flare fitting connections. the whole shebang is made to be removed with just a few screws. I bet they would dominate if paired up with a larger refrigerator compressor/condenser that draws around 400 watts at load.
