Curbed and need help

So about a year ago, when I first got my lude, big step up from my 91 corolla. Was really cautious at first, but then got edgier and edgier. Ended up coming to hot around a corner, back end went out. I over corrected, then over corrected again, throwing my front tire sideways into a curb at about 30mph. Consequently my ass end, being attached to the front end, followed it's path, and also slammed into the curb. Both rims bounced off, and I was left sitting in the street almost in tears at my own reckless dip****tedness.

Story time aside, as well as two rear hub assemblies, two new axles, a strut rod, alignment, and balancing, I'm still not driving right. I have had it in several different shops, aligned a few times, new tires, the ball park, but I still cannot get it back to how it was before. Any idea's on what else I might have mashed that could be missed by all the inspections?

Upper control arms are easily bent by a hit like that, as well as the toe links. With bent suspension components your alignment will never be straight until the parts are replaced.
