But I'm having a hard time believing that you bent a cast aluminum housing, (seems to me that it would rip or tear first) let alone that it's what is causing your steering troubles.

A bent tierod would be obvious, so would a bad pitman and idler arm if they checked it.
I'm leaning towards bruised tire.....I've one on my truck now, it's the spare.
Have them
balance a rotate everything again... someone's being lazy...
