Hard Wheel Pull

OK as some may know this last snow fall i slid into a curb and bent my control arm(not FE5 which are alot stronger) Since then i've put a new stock control arm in and switched out all wheels and tires. Now that is fixed but everytime i give it anymore than half throttle it feels like one wheel will pull and then the other will catch... sending me all over the road trying to correct it. I had it sent in for an alignment and nothing wrong there. Also, when i'm on the freeway i notice the steering wheel shaking a little bit which it never did before... and the grooves in the road also pulls me around. I'm bewildered at what it could be.... anyone else have this problem or know what i can look at to see what my problem is? I've looked under the vehicle and everything seams fine... but obviously not. Any input on how to resolve this would be great and i thank you in advance for giving a supportive answer.

Yeah surprisingly enough the spec sheet is almost identicle to the alignment i had done 6 months previous. Tires are good as well. Could it be that i bent the steering control arm some how?
