    Also is it possible for the steering wheel to be off center but the alignment is ok?

    Truck tracks straight even with no hands but the steering wheel is crooked, can I just adjust the wheel?

    Yes but I bet the alignment is off...you could undo th splines on the shaft and align the wheel

    Even though it drives straight? Would toe be the only thing changing the steering wheel position?

    Mostly. If you get it aligned they will center the steering wheel using the tie rods.

    Unless they run out of adjustment. Then the rack would need to be disconnected from the steering shaft and clocked.

    if you do this, make sure not to turn your steering wheels 3 or more full turns or else youll break your clock spring and loose your horn, air bags, and steering wheel controls if you have them. I learned the hard way... haha

    Me too... luckily my steering wheel controls still work, but my horn doesn't and my airbag light is on... as long as my steering wheel controls and cruise still work I'm not going to replace the clock spring.

    damn you got lucky! my friend joel did that to this 12 and lost steering wheel controls. I only have a horn and airbag so it really wasnt an issue for me. Its a pricey fix too!
