Power Steering column adjustment

I recently had a mechanic put in rebuilt Rack and Pinion.

The mechanic did a good job installing the Rack and Pinion

But not a such good centering the Rack and Pinion before he put on the outer tie rods.

I went over he said he moved the steering by adjusting it at the column.

Has anyone ever had to center a steering wheel and whats the best way to fix this.

@erikk71 “he moved the steering by adjusting it at the column” sounds very odd. If you lost the position while replacing the steering you could adjust it be removing the steering shaft from the steering gear at the steering joints. then move them a few splines in the direction to even the tires and the steering wheel and reinstalling it.
