Pitman arm is hitting tortion bar! Help?

This was on my mind, so I went out and looked at my 70 Duster. Pitman and tie rod nuts are up, and I'm the only one to work on it since new. If your drag is dropped, to clear the pan; wrong link. Check for that. I didn't (you couldn't) from the pic, figure out why the pittman stud was so far out of the link. I think the taper wrong; flip (or get correct one) the link, pittmann will work, the tie rod nuts will be pointed up...

Then figure the idler.
