Sounds like you over-tightened the pillow balls. Those are the metal ball ends that screw into the end of the A-arm. Try loosening them just a tad and see it that gives you a bit more wiggle room. You want the front hubs to have full travel back and forth to have any turning radius.

Actually, it would be the caps that close down on the pillow balls. The balls are for aligning the camber of the wheels, and the caps keep the slop out. slightly loosen each cap just enough to give you free movement on the steering and suspension.
The cap will have a large hex, and you would put a smaller hex through that to reach the pillow ball adjustment.
