Steering wheel/rack question

While the engine was out, someone must have turned the wheel. Since the rack has a divot and a locking bolt, I just realigned the two and bolted it back together. Now the wheel is cocked to the side, even though the car seems to track straight. Any reason I can't just pull the steering wheel and line it back up? I'm assuming that the wheel could techinally do 360's while it was apart, right?

Yeah, steve you can realign your steering wheel by pulling it and moving to center with the wheels straight. Should be no problem at all. So, was it you or your wife that was secretly pretending to be auto-xing in there while it was apart....maybe it was the baby!
ALWAYS blame the kids....especially if they are too young to talk and deny it.

I had various family members over for the baby's birthday while I had it apart. Who knows what they were doing in there!
