Default Heavy steering after mods any advice?

Hi,
I have been upgrading the handling on my classic for doing track days.
I put Tein coil-overs on to the car and rear white line anti roll bar with uprated drop links and the difference was amazing. I then started on the front. The front anti roll bar was fitted and the handling of the car was even better. Last week I had the Cdf drop links and alk, alloy wishbones and white line bump steer kit fitted and they were all brand new.
When I got the car back, the steering was really heavy and did not feel right.
I took it to get the tracking done to make sure everything is okay and get some negative camber on.
Although it helped a little, the steering changes from heavy to light and I seem to now get oversteer even at low speeds.
The power-steering is working, the power-steering motor is working, the fluid is full and the belt is in good condition.
It was supposed to handle like a go kart not a milk float.
I took the car to CDF racing and they said that everything looks like it's fitted correctly apart from the two 5mm spacers, which are not fitted with the drop links. However, the mechanic said that if these are fitted then the drop links would be at a greater angle.
I am based in kent and was wondering if any one can help or pass me onto someone that would.
Thanks,
Graeme
