I have done a bunch of searching looking for a tapered sleeve. I did find a picture of one once, but could not find any info. I am not saying there isn't one, I just couldn't come up with anything.

I took a close look at drilling the tapered hole from the other side of the spindle and flipping mine but there would not be be much of a tapered hole left. I could not come up with any good solid solution when trying to flip the actual tie rod.
