Better Push-Pull Steering?

Got my Dodge 60 installed. At first I was going to do crossover but elected to stay push-pull. So I got a chevy arm for the top of the driver king pin and hooked up my drag link. I can steering to the stop easily in 1 direction but turning right doesn't want to go quite as far. I can get it there but it seems like the drag link joints are maxing out. I have a couple thoughts on how to fix this. Currently my rag joint and steering box are completely inline - I could unbolt the captain fab adapter and tip the box down a little (on the side that attaches to the rag joint). I figure this way the pitman arm will stay flatter and not max out the joints at full turn right?

My second idea was to see if there are just ball joints that have more flex than the stock chevy stuff? That would be my ideal so I could leave the box where its at and not drill another set of holes in an already old frame.

Here are some pics to give you an idea.
