I had the same issue with the tie-rod drag link rubbing as you do. Considering the placement of the box as well as the drag links I am having the steering arm cut and shortened then re-enforced. Then rubbing shouldnt be an issue on the axle plate. Given the length of the pitman Im taking an 1 x 3/4" off of the steering arm. I do have the same setup as you do. IT should be done and modified tomorrow and I will post some pictures.
