if you sit in your driveway, and count the number of TOTAL TURNS the steering wheel will turn, divide by 2, and turn the wheel that far you should have the steering box centered. If this is true, take your truck to the shop where you get the truck aligned, and tell them that the steering wheel is not centered. this is a function of properly aligning any vehicle. sounds like you are off just a scunch, and should be easily corrected with an alignment. As far as the pitman arm, I think it is master splined. meaning it will only go on one way. some are splined where they could be put on in 90 degree increments. I think you need an alignment! widwside is right!! I own a mom and pop full service auto repair shop, and it just makes me mad as heck when someone brings me an estimate for $500-$1000 worth of front end work, and we sell them a tire or two, and a PROPER alignment and they are on their way. Do your homework, and find an independantly owned repair shop, with owner on site. You will pay a bit more, but the BS is way less.
