changing struts will mess up alignment, sounds like too much toe out. Just get an alignment and all should be well unless the tie rods or ball joints are sloppy.

I don't know what car you have, but when I bought my omni, it had a shadow or daytona driver's side axle in it. It did the exact same thing as yours. I now have 2 omni axles in it and it drove fine when I had it out last. Also, check that the engine is centered. You'll have to look up the procedure, but should be easy to find.

Center the engine and get a good alignment and you'll be good.

How did you check the ball joints and tie rods?

Did you get an alignment?
