New lift installed - steering wheel off 90

I just installed a lift this weekend , and now the steering wheel is off by about 90 degrees.

What I did - The steering wheel has about 4 total revolutions from left to right before it hits a stopper. I centered the tires, cranked the steering wheel all the way counter-clockwise till I hit the stopper, then turned it two revolutions clock-wise. Installed the dropped pitman arm (it can only be installed in 90 degree increments due to flat areas lining up).

Problem - When I drive down the road, the steering wheel is about 90 degree's clock-wise from center (which I am assuming is the lift and dropped pitman arm). Not too big a deal, except now the turn signals are either not turning off (one direction) or turns off before I even turn (other direction).

Any suggestion on how to fix this? I was thinking of unhooking the steering before the power steering box and turning the wheel that way (might work?), or I suppose taking off the steering wheel and just turning it that way...?

Thanks for any advice.

Lengthen the drag link (connecting rod).

 

Do I need to purchase a longer drag link, or can I adjust what I have?
I am not sitting in front of the jeep and can't recall off hand how it hooks up.

Thanks again for the response

 

Ahh, ok. I think I figured it out. I can take off the pitman arm, and turn the adjuster there (just one end of it)?

 

Each end is threaded with opposite handed-ness (just like the tie rod), so loosen the clamps and rotate to lengthen or shorten.

 

Got it. Thanks!

 

Just make shure you have at least a 1/2 inch of thread remaining both sides of the sleve.

 

Thanks for the tip. Got under the Jeep last night and oh'boy... gonna need to hit it with a few days of penetrating oil before I get it to move.
