Don't drive it that way! That's a severe enough angle to bind the sockets & possibly tear them apart. You will need the drop pittman, & possibly even an offset drag link. Keep in mind the front end will drop some when you get the truck fully assembled- I'd wait & see if you need the offset drag link after it is all back together. And yes, you want it as close to flat horizontal as possible. Even with everything right, you will probably have a lot of bumpsteer with such a big arch front spring.
