High steer kit?

Does anyone offer a high steer kit for a 79 Bronco? Did any Fords come with a high knuckle front end? I'm tired of bending my tie rod.

Yes, it is still a D44.
No, no factory D44 high knuckle(s).

I flipped my tie rod over the knuckle, netting about 3" more clearance. I don't know if that would be good enough for what you need or not.

Here's the writeup. You can see for yourself if it would be something you are interested in.
