Alright, so about one month ago i went offroad and got the front left wheel in a three foot ditch and the front right tucked under the wheel well.  Doing this broke my p/s pump. I fixed the pump but the steering wheel it constantly turned about 1/4 turn to the right. the wheel works fine but it just off center.  What did i do? and do you think anything else could be broken?

I agree, tie rods or drag link very likely got bent.  What year is your truck?

Year is a 96 and my front left frame rail got bent out of the deal.

you might have to go to a shop and get your frame straightened. at least have it looked at.
