Default Bump steer - track bar and drag link angles

I'm trying to track down why my steering gets upset with bumps. I want to rule out bump steer due to track bar/drag link parallelism issues.

The PO installed an adjustable track bar which I believe to be made by RC.

Lift is 4.5" nominal but I believe it measures at 6".

Searching yielded lots of recommendation for drop pitman arms but if I understand what I am looking at, a drop pitman arm would make the track bar and drag link less parallel.

Am I correctly interpreting the photo?
