bad lower ball joint?

hi I have a 1995 f150 xl 4x4 with an inline 6 and I've been have a rubbing issues on the front passenger sides on sharp turns. The truck is completely stock with 116000 miles and only rubs on that side. I was wondering if this could be a lower ball joint because I just replaced the driver side one (never had that problem on that side with rubbing) and it has at least 2 inches before it rubs. And feedback helps, thanks

Impossible to guess through the Internet. It needs to be looked at by someone who knows what they are looking at. At the least, jack up that side of the truck, shake the wheel in all directions, and look for something that moves that shouldn't.

Not at first, you need something to grab on to.
