not centered?

I had my ty on the rack today looking at my control arm bushings, which are shot, when I noticed that it turns quite a bit more to the right than it does to the left! Could the gearbox have not been centered when someone put the pitman arm on? Or is this stock? I am very confused by this, also with the control arm bushings, are they hard to press it? Can it be done without a press, mabey air hammer?
Thanks

I just did another front end rebuild consisting of many things including the control arm bushings.

u can do it without a press. but u will need plenty of time and patience.
a torch makes quick work of it all.

the pittman arm is keyed so that u cannot install it incorrectly. but the steering shaft is not.
