Hard start and weird symptoms

Car sat for like a month I have always done all my own work but nothing major since it ran like a top. Started it up was missing on one cylinder so revved it up and the hydraulic lifters seem to have been drained so took a minute for the ticking to go away. Also recently I replaced the bearings and tie rod end on the drivers side so put it all back together and aligned the tires best I could using alternative methods. Then took the car for a test drive and with no squealing I noticed that when I let the wheel go the sterring was straight but the steering wheel was misaligned as in being square with the dash. Curious if anyone has any ideas.
