are mechanic told us we needed new spindles that those were the reason our ball joints kept going bad on the truck, we replaced these with some 2nd hand on that weren't as bad. then the tires went bad they were old tire anyways. so we got new tires within about a month of getting the spindles and new ball joints put on. we then went to get the tire alignment done about 2 weeks later come to find we need new ball joints and i guess a new center link. it's been a about 2 weeks then, and now our brand new tires a wracked the wires are already showing out of the sides what is wrong with our truck?

used spindles??? old ball joints should have been replaced. alignment was most likely why the tires went bad
