I don't think it would be cost effective. Both the ball joint and tie rod end have tapers on them. You would have to reweld and then remachine the tapper in....I personally don't like the idea (and think that it would be quite expensive...), that said a metal engineering workshop would be the place to ask I suspect.
Why not find a shorter tie rod end that fits the existing situation (and the mx73 steering arm) assuming that the mx73 tie rod end is too long or short or something and can't be used?
And either find a lower control arm that is an OK length but has a lower ball joint that fits the mx73 arm as well, or modify you LCA (lower control arm) so that it accepts a mx73 ball joint?
Or find different steering arms that will work (ie bolt to the mx73 strut but have smaller diameters on both the tie rod and ball joint mounting points?)?
Cheers
