Tie Rod Flip (to lessen bumpsteer)

I have "old school" stepped A-arms on my truck with stock spindles. Had this setup forever and it works fine except for the excessive bumpsteer. If I flip the tie rod on the spindle, the geometry will be much better.

Anyone here do this?....and if so, what's the easiest and most cost effective way?

I know DJM has a kit with drill, tap, and inserts for like $140 or so......not real interested in that route cuz I'll only do it once!
