JK Steering wheel wandering
This link is to the JK Writeups area of the forum. While it is geared toward Deathwobble, it may be a good read just for some background info - and that first pic can be very helpful for putting names to parts.

While this is not a JK steering setup, it is a good representation of what I was referring to in my last post. Straight lines from bolt-to-bolt on both bars, so you can easily see how parallel they are. Then it takes it a step further to show the planes the bars rotate through. If they were not parallel to each other, you could imagine how the bars would be pulling in different directions when hitting bumps, which ccould possibly be a cause of bumpsteer...
With a draglink flip / high steer / the axle end of both bars would be raised a few inches, flattening the steep angles caused by the lift.
With a drop pitman, the frame end of the draglink would be lowered, and one end of the trackbar would be moved at the same time to achieve a similar result. (though most here will agree that a flip/high steer is the better choice.)

I should not compare countries but there should be similarities between US and Canada whereas that dealer is responsible to make it right if that is how it was when the vehicle left the lot. Especially that steering geometry altering while driving. That is a potential accident waiting to happen.
