Go back and check your work. Something is not tight or you have worn parts also on the right side. Nothing should move except at a joint and these points should move naturally - not from wear. The steering rack is fixed and is pulling the right side in - check for control arm bushings and ball joints on the right. You want natural rotation not slide - sounds you have slide due to excessive and very dangerous wear.

+1 on the ball joint. A loose nut where it goes into the knuckle will cause this.
