Steering wheel shimmy, noise after rotation V70-XC70

I just had the tires rotated on my 2000 V70 FWD, 105,000 mi. Now there is steering wheel vibration and generally loud tire noise - no thumping or bumping, just roar as if I was driving on huge treads. Took it to indie, asked if it maybe needed alignment and/or balance. They said it needed new sway bar links, tie rods, alignment at a cost of $770...should I just go elsewhere and get balance/alignment first? I know sway bars are about $65 each- this sounds way too expensive, even if it is a necessary repair.
