Default HELP!!! 97 Blazer that sways when hitting a dip.

I need some advice. I just had my upper and lower ball joints replaced, the sway bar and pitman arm also. Driving into work today felt like a swing. I know it needs an alignment and a new tire. Just not sure what the issue could be. Anyone have this problem before?

Thanks,
LC

Ok, When you say "sway's when hitting a dip"... Front end moving back and forth from left to right, or the whole body kinda waving around?
I'm having the issue of the wavy body. At 65+ mph I go over a bridge and the front left bounces a lot faster than the rest, causing it to kind of bounce around like its drunk. This is because I have a blown out shock absorber up there. I gotta get that fixed, I just put them on 20,000 miles ago. that's what I get for buying Monroe shocks. Never have they lasted for me.
