I tend to say move the spring mount back on the arm. Although, that will make the spring act stiffer (just a little) and may raise the rear height a little. It would also cause the springs to be a little wider at the bottom mount, but you could modify for that while you're at it.

If you move it forward on the frame, you'll have more weight behind the spring, so it will squat the rear and pick up the front slightly. It should keep you over the top of the trailing arm better though (side to side).

I think my vote is for moving the mount on the trailing arm back toward the axle.

Just look at an analog clock and the relationship of the number 5 to the number 3. As you move counter clockwise the numbers move to the right, the rear axle does the same thing as the frame gets lower.
