My front wheels point straight ahead but the steering wheel isn't pointing forward. Its a couple of inches to the right. How do I fix this?

Actually I think paying the 45 bux to do the alignment would be cheaper and easier than pulling the whole wheel off.

I'll do the alignment when I put on new rims, and struts, and see what happens but I think that I may have to pull the sterring wheel also
Thanks

Yes, an alignment will fix that easily. I do probably 5 a day. DO NOT remove your steering wheel. Please, it makes it really hard to ever get things straight again. Oh, and make life easy on the align tech, do the alignment BEFORE you put your new wheels on the car. It's 1000X easier to do an alignment on steel wheels than aftermarket ones (it's also good for you since the alignment will be more accurate if the heads are on good and tight)

i have a puller, takes me all of 15 minutes to pull straighten and put back on.. might also need an alignment if its off from wheel to wheel

I was being a smart a$$. I live in Georgia. And as of today I don't turn wrenches anymore. I'm a service manager now. I just couldn't pass up the near doubling of pay.
