Default car shaking and less control. ideas?

A couple weeks ago i hydroplaned straight into a curb. Cracked the oil pan and got it replaced. Alignment was messed up but right after i got the car back i threw on new tires and got them balanced and aligned.

The problem is that when im driving above 50 or so the car will start shaking. Also the steering is not as tight and the car feels like it has less control. I was thinking one of my control arms was shot but they all look good. Anyone got any ideas?

your cv boot/axles could be gone. if there's any play on your wheels too, than your control arms need replacing.
