Just to add another viewpoint to the draglink flip debate - I was a bit over 4" actual lift for several years with no steering correction. Stock components. Steep angles. No bumpsteer. When I finally got around to a raised bracket and flip, what I noticed was a smoother, less jarring ride. No change in handling.
One of the benefits noted for the CA drop brackets is that running the ca's at flatter angles prevents road shocks from travelling up those bars into the frame. I imagine that is the same thing I experienced with the flip - bumps and road imperfections were travelling up the steeply angled trackbar and draglink instead of being absorbed through the coils/shocks. (don't think I have ever read anyone else comment on that, so just a hypothesis...)
