Steering Pull

I've got an '84 Saab 900S with 381K miles on it. Last weekend I replaced
both half shafts, both lower ball joints, and the passenger side lower
control arm with one from an 89 900T (I couldn't get the ball joint out of
the old one easily and ended up bending it). After this I sent the car to
be aligned (my wife picked it up yesterday and didn't get the alignment
report).

Today while driving to/from work I noticed the car pulls to the left when on
the gas and to the right when letting off. When I got home I rechecked all
bolts and all seemed fine.

Before I did all this, the car had rock solid straight line stability at all
speeds/loads. The only thing that comes to my mind is that the bushings in
the new arm could be worn.

Any agreement or other theories out there before I dive into this one?

As always thanks much.

Martin
