Bushings, alighnment or what??

Ok, here's the new problem. I had my car aligned in December, but it still pulls to the right. And lately when ever I've been driving down the road the car will pull to the right, but if I get on it or put the torque to work the car will start to pull to the left. This is really annoying and slightly dangerous. And you can actually feel the steering wheel tighten and loosen, which makes me adjust how I am steering. I hate this crap and if I'm not carefull I'll be swerving in and out of my lane. Does anyone have any ideas what this could be? I know the guy that had the car before me ran over something on the passenger's side to the car, because it broke the foglight and jacked up the strut tower. That's another thing, when ever I bought the car the first thing I did was have the struts replaced. The car drives a million times better, but when ever I hit a series of bumps I can still hear the notorious front passenger wheel somewhat dribble. Any ideas?

So basiclly I need to take it to the shop and have it checked out? Does anyone know how much these repairs usually cost? So, I will not get screwed.

Matt93SE, Know any good places here in town, to take it.

bring it by the Blehmco garage. It'll be open all day Saturday. stop by anytime between 10am and 7pm and I'll have the owner take a look.

otherwise, take it by the Sears on 21st and Yale or Dino's tire on admiral. they're the ones I deal with most of the time and even Sears is good about finding weird stuff that I miss.

Matt,
Where is the Blehmco garage? Are they open in the morning? I don't have to be to work until noon and was thinking or taking it somewhere before work. If not I can still run by there on Saturday.
