Steering wheel reposition.

My ocd is killing me ! My steering wheel is not “straight” when driving straight down the road. How to reposition ? How does horn center cap come off ? Is the steering wheel on a spline shaft where I can just reposition it ? Will I need a puller ?

1970 dodge d200. Thanks for any info !!!!

Re: 1970 D200 318 Starter Motor needed

Got it....I read about having to do some grinding before install....True or false ?
Also...Do I need the wiring relocation kit or does the kit just make the terminals easier to access ?
Thanks again !
