Does anyone have any other suggestions for what I can do?

I'm running on 9x22 with 265/35 tires on my 57. I have been forced to use 30mm spacers because the rim hit my Pitman arm. even after I straightened it out

But after I lowered the it a little more I get a problem with the space between front wheel and fender, as seen in the photo.
It had been easy if I just could move the pitman arm 1 or 2 notches on the steering box, but it can only be moved 8 notches at a time

My plan is to cut the Pitman arm and weld it together a little offset. I have tried to show it with a piece of cardboard. With this I think I can do with 10mm spacers. I hope it is enough.

But I do not want to cut in the one I have. since I do not know if it will work.

I have searched on ebay, but there are not any to find.

Does anyone have any other suggestions for what I can do?
