Hi truckers,
My truck’s steering wheel is crooked towards the left and when I straighten it out it goes to the right. Because of this my right steer tire was worn out from the outside.
So, I took it the shop, changed both the steer tires and did a full truck alignment and the steering is still crooked.
TIA

To be honest, of the literally dozens and dozens of trucks I drove, I don't recall ANY of them with a straight steering wheel. Not sure why that was, on my trucks, it was a simple steering rod spline adjustment,, but was crooked again 2 weeks later. It was one of the things I learned to put up with.

You're not getting excessive wear from a misaligned steering wheel. I'd have someone who knows what they're doing jack up the front end and check your kingpins and bearings for play.
