In may of 2004 my idler arm was loose, and I had it replaced. I started to notice excessive and uneven wear on my front tires by October 2004. Around thanksgiving I was driving up my street, and lost control of my truck as I drove around a curve and almost hit oncoming traffic. I did not crash, but I had the lower ball joints and the idler arm replaced again, and then new tires put on the truck. Over the past few months I have noticed a popping sound in the front end, and uneven wear on the front tires again. The steering is loose, and around curves it seems to slip, and I feel as though I am about to loose control.
