that's exactly what i did (1/2 inch) and even with the best quality one i had in my toolbox it still got too sloppy. i had around 1/3rd to 1/2 of a turn of the steering wheel with no steering response--it degraded to that level within 15 minutes to 1/2 hour of riding time ... add that to the toe issue and you can begin to understand why I decided to tear my front end down and do it all over. desert karts has some affordable universals, you could also get one of the yerf double-jointed ones which allow you to offset the column. (thats what i ended up with)
