one approach , steel-tube stem raiser, a quill at the bottom , wedge bolt comes up half-way ,

where the tube of 4130 steel increases in diameter, so on top you could transfer the original stem and insert it in there..

Because bottom OD is same as top ID, so as a result its upper OD is like the fork's OD 1"

there are abundant shims from 1" to 1.125", often comes with the stem.. to use on 1" forks..


#14, it would appear, the stem was pulled up a bit much and wedge overtightened..

BTW you can find some pretty tall quill stems with angle adjustment and oprn face.. if that is your primary need, bar swapping.
