Thoughts on my control arm angle?

Took a phone pic of my control arm angle. Granted its probably hard to get the correct position laying on the floor trying to get a picture but I thought its pretty close to accurate.

This is with 295 radials and stock moog rear springs. To go lower I will have to go with a shorter spring and tire. I think I already have too much gear (4.33) so I would have to change that too.

We have also gone somewhat against what most would tell you and lowered it far enough to have the lower control arms pointed DOWN towards the frame mount. This has actually worked better the more power we put to it.
I don't think I can get it that low!

I'm certainly not a suspension expert and can't offer any help on your question but the angle on your ARB link looks a little off. It doesn't look ideal to me and may be hindering your suspension travel. Hopefully somebody who knows more will share some insight.
Good catch, its not adjusted. The links are loose
