I've done it and bought my kit from Mid America.

From the install directions...

"Depending on the after market **** or ball you use will depend if it is higher than your stock ****. It will usually be
about 1/2” or a little higher. You can adjust this a little by
drilling most ***** or ***** out a little. A number of ***** like
the MOMO have a sleeve to fit into the **** so it will fit, and
then are held on by Allen set screws. We have had even better success by wrapping the shaft with electrical tape until the
thickness is achieved."
