Default help with baer tracker

I replaced my steering rack on my 93z with one out of an ls1 car, and replaced the tie rods with the baer tracker set. I went to pep boys for an alignment, and they said they couldn't do the alignment, something about too much play. Not sure if its the baer tie rods, I did notice alittle more wiggle from the front end when I removed the oe tie rods. I figured it would go away after an alingment......but now I cant get one. Is there a certain place that can do it? Or is there something else wrong? It does look like my ball joints are shot, but I didn't feel any looseness when I was using the oe rods.......

Yeah you have to take the car to an alignment shop that has experience with those rods, not just any alignment place can do it.
