My steering wheel is off center, tips to right when I'm driving straight.

I jacked the front end and turned the wheels for the PS pump bleed...
did I mess something up? Can't remember how it drove before, but I'd sure like to fix it...

Same problem except I hold my steering wheel to the left to drive straight. Quite a bit to the left actually. Hope someone chimes in.

Yeah, thats what I meant. I have to hold it to the left to steer straight.
Hope its an easy fix...its buggiin me...

That should be just the draglink adjustment between the steering box and axle tie-rod bars. Trial and error till you get it right. Adjust... drive...adjust a little more...drive...etc, till you get it centered...

the split sleeve is whats its called. that is where you center the wheel. its on the draglink.

you can center the wheel through the drag link, and that wont change frt alignment.

Beware that when you adjust that the bolt side of the split sleeve isn't pointed towards the steering dampener. Doesn't look like it with the wheels straight but when you turn tight the sleeve will hit the dampener and bend or cut it.

thanks, I wont get to this right away but sounds easy enough.

Also, when you re-tighten the split sleeve... make sure the bolts are on the split side... so they clamp the link bar with max force...
