Steering issue I think

Ok here is the problem when I turn right, it pulls to the right after the turn and when I turn left, it pull's to the left after the turn. But when I jerk the wheel in the opposite direction it drives straight almost hands off straight. The problem started after I replaced the U-joints and the seal in the axle on the driver side rear end. Ball joints feel good and tie rod joints are tight also. Anyone have an idea what might cause be causing this.

Well I'm assuming "driver side rear end" means the front differential.

Is the steering wheel hard to turn or binding?

It's a 4x4 and the rear axle seal are the ones that I replaced.

No it turns good, no power steering noise while moving and a little when parked. Only time I get loud noise from the steering is when the wheel is fully turned and held there.
