I got a 1994 ford ranger that was starting to wear on the front tires really bad, the passenger side was cambered and wore down on one side and the driver's side was wearing but not cambered. we replaced the tierod on the drivers side and i bought new 31" cooper discoverer stt's and am skeptical about putting them on because i dont want them to wear in one spot bad. i've been told that its ball joints, wheel bearings, tierods, and front brake discs. anything you guys would recomend i should replace then before I put my new $700+ tires on?

regardless tho, answer his question.From what it sounds like, its the ball joints, and possibly needs a front alignment. I would jack it up, determine if there was any play in the steering and go from there, but i would say buy new upper and lower ball joints for both sides, then get yourself an alignment
