I have a 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 quad cab. I have a leveling kit installed.

I noticed my front passenger side tire was wearing unevenly on the outside and I needed new tires anyways so I put new tie rod ends on both sides (they were shot), then took my truck to the shop and got a new set of 4 tires and alignment. But it looks like my front passenger tire is still wearing on the outside... any ideas?

 

if its kind of a wavy feel have an alignment done most likely the toe is out of whack, at least thats what caused ti problem with mine

 

It drives straight and fine, alignment was just done recently so it has me confused.

 

Right front tires tend to wear faster. How's the pressure and how many miles on the shocks?

 

ball joints?

 

Tire pressure is correct, 100k on the shocks.

 

Could a bad wheel bearing cause the tire wear on the outside like that? It roars like a freight train when turning left.

 

Possable. Depends how loose the bearing is. From the noise you describe it could be a bearing. you can jack the front and push/pull on the top and bottom of the tire to check for play. Depending on the mileage in may just be time. Bearings can be bad with no play as well.

 

I would say change the wheel bearing, and also check the axle's and u-joints for wear/play.

 

I would be leery of an alignment done by any shop that didnt notice a loose wheel bearing...

after you determine if the bearing is bad, and replace if need be, take it somewhere else and have the alignment checked. Goodyear, Firestone, Pep Boys, and a few other large chains do a free check.
