68 f250 steering problems

I have a 68 f250 4x4. When I steer right the arm on the knuckle ends up hitting the shock. The arm sticks straight out. Going left seems fine and the shocks are mounted the same on both sides. I have been told to rotate the pitman arm but I don't see how this will work. Any help would be great.

Not sure on a F250, my truck is a F100, but I would have someone turn the steering wheel and get under the front and watch the differant parts of the steering and see if something is warn or broken to cause the knuckle to hit.
