Steering wheel not aligned
I tried searching through threads, but wasn't sure how to word my problem.
i recently had a family friend do some work on my 96 z28. he dropped the k member to install the LT's and when he hooked everything back up the steering wheel was no longer centered. 10 and 2 hand positions became 1 and 5 to drive in a straight line.
So what is the best/easiest way to fix this? do i need to drop the motor/k member...the whole 9 yards or can i just unbolt the steering universal, pull it apart and align it properly? Is the pictured universal where i could disconnect the steering?

Thanks guys

It may be a pain, but you'll have to straighten the wheels, and disconnect the steering shaft from the rack and rotate it until it's straight. Reassemble, test drive and adjust again as needed.
