a buddy of mine a a 97 4.2 stock and he was telling me that he believes that his ball joints are goin again... he just replaced it a few months ago... then we got to talking about it and he said he has replaced them 6 times in 5 years.. not just by his judgement either.. they wouldnt inspect him..... anyone know anything about why this could be happening? or ever hear of anything like that?

 

Has the truck been wrecked before and is it only one particular side?
Somethings off... out of balance tires, bent rim, bad alignment.... something. Poor quality ball joints... Bad suspension...

 

Could it be that the wheel bearings need replaced? My 2wd eats wheel bearings every two years or so it seems. I suspect it's the heavy **** BFG AT KO's I'm running.
