Center the box first , then pitman arm , then axle/drag link . Center the wheel after that and set the toe-in . If that box is running off-center that will contribute to the problem as the recirculating ball system does have a "center" to it , running it out of center in a straight will make it feel weird .

I think you're absolutely right, Sarge. I dropped it back off at the shop yesterday. The mechanic swore up and down that the box was centered when installed. Hopefully I'll have it back today with an explanation of what happened...
The one thing that is still bugging me is this was the exact situation that occurred with the previous box, and the previous steering setup...I had 1.5 turns left, and 2.5 turns right. It just seems oddly coincidental that this box would be off in the exact same manner, when it was supposedly centered when installed, unless ARCTICMUTT's theory holds true, and he based center off the old box. He says he marked up the new box though...
That said, I really can't see any alternative situation that would result in what I'm seeing...Hopefully the mystery will be solved this afternoon!
