2017 Stearing wheel issue
I have a 2017 platinum Ford F350 Dully that we just installed a 4 1/2 inch rough country lift. We took it and had it aligned and all is well. The issue that I’m having is the steering wheel when I get to 55 mph is crooked by 90° and when you slow down, it slowly goes back to center any help would be appreciated.

Steering wheel angle is set by the collar on the drag link. Once it's set and the two 13mm nuts are tightened the steering wheel isn't going to move much at all when going in a straight line, whether slowing down or accelerating. If your wheel is really turning 90 degrees you've got a major problem and I personally wouldn't drive the truck until it's fixed.

Are you getting any alerts on the dash, like an adaptive steering fault? The straight ahead steering wheel angle shouldn't change the faster you go. It it's off because of the lift and needing a drag link adjustment, it will be off at slow or fast speeds....and would have been corrected during the alignment.
