In his book about Richard Nixon's early career, Roger Morris reported that Taft had promised the Vice Presidency to Douglas MacArthur. (Morris went out on a lot of limbs in that book, so who knows.)

Assuming Morris was right, would President MacArthur have offered the Chief Justiceship to Dewey? And would Dewey have accepted it if he had? He said no when Nixon offered it in 1969, after all.

Isolationist Taft appoints someone other than John Foster Dulles as Sec. of State, so he's free for open appointment as Dewey faction regains prominence...or Harlan, who was the next Eisenhower appt anyway?

Lot of good counterfactual ammo for this scenario in Jean Smith's Eisenhower in War & Peace, p. 601+
