Default eg toe in problem?

I have a crazy toe in problem on my 92 eg.
I have strut tower bar and was wondering if that could cause some the problem?
I also have old worn springs and struts but, would that cause this bad of a toe in?
I replace my front tires every month. I also replaced almost every part in the front end. outer tie rods, cv axles, hubs, lower control arm outer bushings and, upper control arm ( passenger ). Have added front strut tower brace and rear lower tie bar. Also the power steering unit has been taken out and the rack has been filled with fluid.
CAN ANYONE HELP?

you ever get an alignment dude?

no a strut bar has absolutely nothing to do with steering.

other than your inner or outer tie rods being totally bad, theres no reason why your alignment should be out of alignment after a week of getting it aligned. are you hitting lots of pot holes???

No pot holes.
But I replaced the tie rods myself do you think I should have twisted it onto the inner rod more than I did to pull the toe in?
