OK, I've stopped driving the truck since it started doing this. Kinda freaks me out.

What happens is when I turn right and then go straight, the steering wheel is crooked, towards the right, (top/center of wheel between spokes is at 2 o'clock).

But then, when I turn left, it will straighten back out, (top/center of wheel between spokes is back to 12 o'clock).

If I turn left again, the steering wheel is crooked again, but this time over to the left, (top/center of wheel between spokes is at 10 o'clock).

I haven't had a chance to check all the pieces to see if they are tight, (my suspiscion is that something is worn out), but I thought I'd see if any of you guys have had this issue before & what you might have done about it.

Thanks in advance!

Later,
Buddy
 
Sounds like one or both ends of your drag link are shot. Had the same issue. New ends cured the problem.
