Hard to turn the wheel?
Hard on the road?
Hard whilst moving?
More info needed.
Did you wheel align it after installation.?
If you lift the wheels off ground does the steering become easier?
Is the power steering pump working? -
Assuming you haven't done any other work, just changed over the UCA's (Upper Control Arms):
The UCA's add Caster angle; increasing steering effort. An alignment should sort it out!

If you take the power steering belt off and run the car is it harder again when turning or same?
Loss of power steering?
Binding of upper ball joint
Is there a grease nipple on the upper joint?Comment

What are your pre-install alignment settings and what are they now?
Was any other work done?

If the only thing that was changed was uca's then upper ball joint must be faulty? Weird.
Disconnect tie rod ends & see if each side turns free n easy as it should.Comment
