I recently bought this vehicle and the steering wheel is crooked, is there a way i can do a front end alignment myself? is that the problem? It does not pull when I let go of the steering wheel except for when the steering wheel is straight it pulls to the left.

Hello my name is Dave.There are several reasons that could cause the wheel to be off center and some of them could be damage to the suspension and potentially dangerous. I would highly recommend having it professionally aligned as they will also make sure there is no damage to the suspension.
