Take a look at octotat's two pictures. Here is his bump-steer kit installed in the OEM position:
Here is his kit installed in the bump-steer correction position, designed for lowered cars. Lowering the mounting point (below the knuckle in this case) really helps prevent most or all of the additional bump-steer introduced by lowering the car. Notice how the angle of the lower control arm and the angle of the outer tie rod end are almost identical (leaving the two pieces almost perfectly parallel).
Now look at your installation:
Do you see the problem now?
Notice how your installation point is even higher than stock?
Notice how your lower control arm and the outer tie rod are not close to parallel?
