Bump steer

Hey guys so I read the post and have been searching I had a little bit of death wobble. Turns out my tie rod ends were bad I have a 2017 6.7 4x4. So when I replaced the tie rod ends I also got a new bushing for the track bar and since it was off a new moog ballpoint on the track bar along with caster shims to give it more castor. Also I just installed a dual stabalizer from pmf the truck still has a little bump steer I do know with a solid axle there will be some. I got to looking though I have a 04 f250 and noticed the drag link was installed on the pitman arm with the nut on top of pitman arm did some research and noticed up to 16 the drag link was installed with the nut on top of pitman arm the in 17 ford moved it to where the nut is on the bottom of the drag link could this be causing some of the bump steer. You will notice in the pictures what I mean because on my 17 it's like the drag link sits a little higher then the track bar. So my question is has any one flipped it like it used to be with luck of not as much bump steer.

You can't flip it. The hole is tapered. As is the stud.
