This is an older thread, but hopefully this helps. Cut the steering arms off the knuckles, shorten them, and reweld them. This will require more force to steer, but will push the wheels further in steering.

The other thing, is if you have a single cab Ranger, use a steering rack from an extended cab. They're supposed to be a better steering ratio, 17:1 vs the 22:1 of the standard cab rack.
