Default Steering wheel off center

I recently got a 99 Druango 4x4, the previous owner had replaced the steering intermediate shaft now the steering wheel is at a 30-40 degree angle.

What do i need to do to fix this? I have downloaded the service manual but did not find anything on this.

Alignment will cure your problem.

The shaft is keyed so it cannot be installed any differently.

You'll need to look under the hood where the column comes through the firewall,the intermediate shaft will be at the bottom of the column before the steering rack...there is a pic in the FSM,in section 19-12,figure 4 shows it..items 1 and 2,coupler and lower shaft.
