Death Wabble

Had a leaf spring level put on the front end of 2K f350 not to long ago. New ball joints on upper/lower, shocks about 1 year old. After the ball joints, had the front end aligned, ever since it has been driving like a boat, with alot of wobble and swaying. Mech. aid it was gear box, but I'm not sure. Any suggetions? Do I need to add dual stabilizers?

Make sure the U-bolts were changed and not reused. Check that the ball joints were installed correctly and find out what kind were used. Have the front tires balanced. Make sure your sway bar is still installed and hasn't been removed. Any clunks or noises from the front? Either way if it is as bad as you say, do not drive it.
