front tire chopping outside edge only one side

Hey all,

I have an 01 f150 4x4 and the front passenger side tire is getting extremely choppy on the out side edge. I have put new shocks on and checked tie rod ends which seem intact. Not sure if this could be signs of a ball joint going bad but they seemed ok last month when I did the breaks. Thanks in advance.

For me that has always been caused by incorrect air pressure.

It only took me 14 years and 6 sets of rubber to figure it out, so good luck :-)

If nothing else, go get a front end alignment and see what they say. My last alignment it was toe'd out pretty good. I literally picked up 2 mpg on the freeway after that alignment.
