This type work should be followed up with a complete 4 wheel alignment which should include checking all the components. It needs matching tires to get the best alignment,

Can you describe "handling real bad"? With a more descriptive post we may be able to give a more exact answer.

As far as the lifting problem, you may check the spring tension ion the front struts. If they are weak it could cause this sympton. The pull to the right is a bit natrual. If it is really bad then not so much. Have a look at the motor and transmission mounts.
