Hello,

I know you can add a draft angle to a body when extruding it by simply moving the “draft arrows” located above the extrusion arrows. However, I couldn’t find a way to add a draft for a part that has already been extruded before. That is, once you confirm extrusion height, you can no longer add a draft to that part.

Is there a way around this problem?

Here is a work around:

Select the border of the face you set the draft angle on and select the scale tool. If you are intending to get it to a specific angle you will need to draw a separate line at that angle and match it since this way only gives you a percentage adjustment.

You can set it side by side.  
Use the trasform tool, highlight the side, set the gizmo to the edge, then you can drag the side of the body,
