Adjusted steering gear & New Rag Joint: Car pulls to the right

Hello Guys
I've recently put new rag joint and adjusted my steering gear but the steering wheel is not centered!
If I let it straight the car pulls to the right
Could I have messed the steering gear by tightening the preload nut?

Maybe but probably not.

Try exchanging the 2 front tires. See if it changes.

Ok I'll try for sure!
If tires are not the problem what could it be?
The car has been aligned 3k miles ago with all new suspension parts

Alignment

"Been aligned" != is FOR SURE aligned correctly
