Bump steering?...

Hey everyone, I recently had my lower balljoints and front struts replaced. After doing so I noticed the ride was much rougher and the steering seems to be much looser. It also seems like when either side hits an uneven part on the road it will pull to that side. I had a friend check out everything on the front end and everything checked out ok. The only thing he could think of is that the new struts are more of a heavy duty resulting in the rough ride. Any suggestions would be great, thanks.

I have the same issue, I think it's either wheel bearings or control arm bushings. But I'm also a landscape contractor not a mechanic [emoji23]
