Got screwed, need help.

I recently bought an 01 civic(not sure which model, 4 door) strut was blown so I replaced them both. Afterwards when fire was straight wheel was at about a 25’ angle and it pulled to the right Took it to get it aligned and they told me I needed new upper and lower bushings so I bit the 400 dollar bullet. They told me my steering knuckle was cracked on both sides and it’ll work for now. Still has a pull to the right and a vibration around 40 to 50 mph and feels wobbly. Is that a symptom of the knuckle or am I looking at a much worse problem?

ps they told me tie rods were fine

Upper bushing?

Could be a few things. Tire, wheel, knuckle, ball joint. I would get another opinion from a different shop.
