It looks like that steering arm has too much lift, putting the tie rod connection up maybe too high as compared to the pitman arm connection. As you articulate the steering it will exaggerate the drag link angle. The short drag link probably contributes some too. That looks like a GM/Dana 44 4" lift arm. Don't know if there's anything with less lift.
