Steering problems

2000 F250 superduty CC 7.3 turbo diesel 4x4. I had all new ball joints installed + a front end allignment and now the truck will not stay in the road. The steering has lots of play also if i hit a bump it walks the road really bad. What other parts could i replace to get this front end tight without giving up an arm are a leg? Thanks if you have any ideas.

Drag link, tie rod ends, or gear box. You need to find out where the play is and fix that!
