1997 GMC Sonoma steering alignment

Steering problem
1997 GMC Sonoma 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual 160000 miles

simply question My steering wheel on my truck is not centered up properly. What do I need to do to center up the steering wheel? I recently purchased the truck and it appears to have been in an accident on front end and front passenger side. The truck seems to steer perfectly fine, just a little pet peeve of mine with the steering wheel and I would like to fix it.

could be several things causing that issue, could be worn suspension components, worn steering components or simply needing adjusted. i suggest taking to local alignment shop and have them align the front end and inspect the components. they should be able to pinpoint anything that needs replacing during the alignment procedure.
