Default steering wheel off

just had a 6 inch lift put on my truck and now my steering wheel is off, i just had the front end alignment which is good , i took the truck on 25 mile road trip and there was no pull to either side and i could let go of the steering wheel and the truck drives strait, so some how the steering linkage must be off. my question is how do i get the wheel back to spec ??

Sounds like they didn't center the steering wheel when they did the alignment. Take it back and have them center it back up.

Take it back to the alignment shop and have them realign it correctly centering the wheel.

Just to drive the point home, take it back and make the alignment shop do it correctly. Straighten the wheel.

I agree, they should have centered the wheel, makes me question a shop that would put an alignment on a vehicle and not check to see if the steering wheel was centered or not.......
