Default Re: 36 Ford drag link orientation question

I have the same oil pan in my '38. With the steering box centered and the drag link connected, there was very little left-turn movement allowed. As The pitman arm moved toward the pan, the drag link moves to the rear of the car and contacts the oil pan. I bent my pitman arm down to clear the pan as I didn't discover this until the engine was installed and running. Once I learn a legitimate way to correct it, I intend to remove my engine for that and some other items that bug me.
