I took my steering wheel off...

when installing the new dash, looks great. To make it easier for my self I decided to remove the steering wheel, no big deal. Made sure the wheels were straight before I took it off. Installed it and now the steering is a bit off, not much, just enough to be irritating. Do I need an alignment to get it straight again?

Find a big empty parking lot. Take the appropriate wrench out with you. Drive a straight line and see how the steering wheel needs to be adjusted. Adjust it and try again. Do this untill you have it where you want. Voila all straight.
