I hAVE HAD THIS TRUCK RIGHT AT A YEAR AND I HAVE SPENT OVER $700. OO ON THE FRONT END REPLACING THE BALL JOINTS TWICE (UPPERS AND LOWERS). TIE ROD ENDS, PITTMAN ARM, WHEEL BEARINGS (2 TIMES). I HAVE BEEN THROUGH THREE SETS OF FRONT TIRES. IT STILL HAS STEERING WANDER. STILL WEARING THE OUTER SIDE OF THE FRONT TIRES. HAS RATTLES THAT YOU CAN FEEL IN THE FLOOR BOARD. IM TIRED OF SPENDING THE MONEY TO FIX THE PROBLEMS AND THEY JUST COME BACK. PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE?
