    So i replaced my rack bushings in my 03 DC and now my steering wheel is cocked to the left. The stealership replaced the big split bushing and did alignment but that didnt fix the issue so i took it to another shop and they said bushings were shot so i replace with wheelers "ES" kit. All better except wheel is crooked as hell. Wheel doing another alignment fix it or did i jack something up moving the rack around. Thanks in advance for any help.

    Need another alignment to correct this problem. You did a alignment with partial faulty parts, now you have good parts with no slack so you will need another alignment
