Carl owns/runs Jantz Engineering near where I used to live & work, I had him machine the upper and lower ball joint tapers in a set of GMT-800 knuckles for me to the correct diameter for the -400 ball joints. During the brake upgrade I installed new upper and lower ball joints, lower control arm bushings, sway bar bushings, and sway bar end links.

I am curious how the tie rod was adapted. I am gathering parts to do this on my 99. The GMT800 uses a smaller tie rod taper than the GMT400. Did you get a different outer tie rod or use an adapter?
