I installed the rag joint eliminator a while ago and I noticed my steering wheel points about 20-25* to the left when going straight after its install. I also have installed new balljoints, LS1 brakes, shocks/springs and tie rod ends right before it so I am going to take it in for an alignment tomorrow. Do you think they will be able to fix this issue or is my eliminator defective?

I may need a sanity check here, but couldn't you just park car with the wheels straight, disconnect the steering knuckle, turn the steering wheel to the desired location, and then reconnect the steering knuckle? I don't know what sort of junk is on top of that on a street car, but on the race car taking the steering knuckle off is one of the easiest things to do.
