Steering after new Tie Rod ends, ball joints & drag link

Hi All,

I recently replaced the tie rod ends, ball joints, sway bar bushes and drag link on my 1992 W124 230E Sportline.

The steering does seem "tighter" but it is more susceptible to undulations in the road. What I mean is if if drive over a ridge running along the road I can feel it pull the steering wheel more than before. If pulls the whole car off track.

It also feels like the front end may have a mind of it's own when going over a rise in the road and turning at the same time. The sensation is similar to that noted above and feels as if the front of the car slides around.

Does anyone know what might cause these symptoms? I also just had the wheel alignment done and they said they could not set the camber properly but I doubt this would be related.

Thanks,
Jase
