Ok, I've spent all day searching and reading all the posts possible, but after reading maybe 100-200 posts, I still couldn't find my answer, so I decided to bring it here on a new thread. Sorry, I know this has been answered but can't seem find the answer.
Well, after off-roading and then putting everything back together, my steering wheel is not aligned
and while I put the steering wheel straight, I drift to the left a little, so I'm not sure if that's because something I did when putting it all back to normal. Or is it normal, and should I just go somewhere and get it aligned?

Being bone stock, you don't have much that needs aligning. Many of us have found our steering off after off-roading. The correction is usually very simple--adjust the drag link. This article tells you how:

It could be other, more serious, things, too, but try that first and come back and let us know how it worked.

Sorry for being unclear. I meant I disconnected the sway bar, went through some trails, and then connected it again. After that, the alignment was off. I was just wondering if I did something wrong when connecting. I'll read Mark Doiron's suggestion and check back. Thanks
