Unbolt steering wheel and bolt back on Straight.
For the wobble you will need genuine nissan panard rod bushes and also check the preload on the swivel hub bearings.. that will fix wobble providing wheels are balanced

as you go higher, the drag link goes up higher on the steering box end which makes it "shorter" on a horizontal plane. It is quite normal behaviour with a lift.

buy a adjustable drag link that will allow u to lengthen it. usually the after market guys make these bomb proof too as they are commonly bent when u thrash ur truck. win win. adjusting steering wheel will work but i think it reduces steering lock a bit in one direction but only a little bit. i done this until i got my rock rods.
