Keeping the drag link level is preferred. The drag link is short on these trucks. Angle will induce more bump steer. So yes, I would recommend adding the pitman arm with a 6” lift. Stay away from the offset drag links as they just relieve ball joint angles, do nothing to actually correct steering geometry. If I recall correctly I just made some drop brackets for the parking cables on my K20.
