Pulling side to side

Well I just finished ball joints and now the truck seems to pull to the left one min. then to the right. Just looking it looks like the toe is out. Is it poss. that when pushing off the hub with the power steering I bent a tie rod or something else. What else could be making it do this. Would the caster make it pull. thanks

Everything is tight. Just waiting for a new driver side hub because it is to tight for me. My local store wanted 425 for it compared to rock auto at 270 I figured I would rather take it apart again than pay the difference. I guess I will just do tie rod ends or lukes links and get an alinement.

Have some one rock the steering wheel side to side and check for play, pay close attention to track bar ends, I'm on my 3rd since may (warranty), something would have to be loose if its wandering side to side,

loose wheel bearings or ball joints would really make it wander
