Let me guess right front tire right....... mine does this even with new ball joints and the alignment is good and nothing is loose besides the steering box :)) never happenes in ford trucks :-"

i'm still trying to find the problem in my truck to see y this is happening.

i'll get back to this if i find the problem :glare:

it is commonly refered toas being chopped it is usually caused from not rotating the tires, i rotate every 5000 miles.

Are the high and low spots in one; the outside edge, center of tire or inside edge?

its definitley because its a ford. sorry but fords are ******* tires. my 93 also does the same thing. the twin I-beams are the main root cause. the best thing you can do is rotate more often. about every 4-5 thousand. Ive worked at discount tires for three years now and even the new ford trucks have this problem. just a small price to pay for being the best!

i see lots of tires shredd appart because the owner doesn't bother to check the pressure. if all you ever do is check/maintain pressure, your tires would last alot longer.
