Brian: I think the OEM Vega arm does have an offset and all the aftermarket ones are straight. ?????

Yes. I used the straight one. I needed to lower the drag link to clear the oil pan. The straight pittman arm gave enough clearance. I did have to lower the idler arm on the opposite side to match. Then a bump steer kit to lower the tie rod end at the spindle to correct that geometry. Worked out pretty nice.
