Default steering problem with my gen 2

my steering wheel pulls hard to the Right for some reason, and it just started after the auto to 5 speed swap. BUT it started only after like my third good launch in the car pulled hard and everything just cant figured out why as soon as i was done launching i found out the my steering kinda blew and started pulling hard to the right (transmission side) so i go home to check it out on jack stands and everything looks fine, but come to find out lower the car back down and the passenger side wheel looks like its sitting to far back towards the passenger side door like something broke. its sits back probably a half inch or a little more and NOTICABLE

Now i know after i take everything off and put it all back together after a swap like the auto to 5 speed i would need an alignment, but this is passed alignment issues and cant figure out what is wrong , does anyone have any info on why this has happed? any help will help me out because i dont feel good driving it and it vibrates wheni get on the throttle now that the steering is fucked and i feel a loss of power because of it!!!

Sounds like an axle problem to me. Installed incorrectly or its binding somewhere in there. It could also be a torson bar (radius rod/arm) which connects your front lower control arm to the chassis and keeps it from moving front to back. Its likely one of those 2 problems. It all boils down to something that you took off/changed, so you should be able to figure it out pretty quickly since you were the one that caused it. It goes back to the "Well I was playing with this and now something is screwed up".....unless its a freak accident, then the last thing you worked on is the best place to start.
