Edm,
I just installed a new Grant steering wheel and its a few degrees to the right. It can't be the alignment because I got one a few months ago and the stock wheel was centered before I removed it.

How can I straighten it out?
 
Did you make marks on the steering coumn when you took the old one off, and put the new one on? You may have installed it a few degrees off?

I would say just deal with it..

maybe it is an alignment problem.. who knows.

Pull the nut, remove hub, turn 1 spline to left, reinstall. If that's too far, have an alignment shop adjust your steering rod ends.

I did that and the next grove to the left is way off.
What are steering rod ends? Is that another word for tie rod ends?
