As far as the off-set on the Moog K6131, I just measured mine.
With a straight edge on top of the end with the grease nipple over to the main shaft I have approx. 5/8" off-set.
From what I can tell yours looks the same.
As mentioned by luvbowties, did you change your idler arm?, and does it also have the 5 1/4"eye to eye?
I also looked at the manual box pitman arm and it also has the 5 1/4" C/C with no offset but it is a smaller box. I believe that they are not inter-changeable as shaft sizes are different.
Keep us posted.
