Tire wear - front inside

Just wondering if abnormal wear on the front inside tires is an indication of ball joints?

This is a F350, 4x4 SRW (DRW converted).

Bad ball joints can cause this.

I have the same problem with my truck. I jacked the front end up and can move both front wheels up and down. You can visually see the slop in the ball joint. The best deal I have found was from powerstrokeshop.com. They offer a complete kit with the Moog Ball Joints, and all the factory Ford seals for 291.00 plus shipping. Mine are on the way

So I ordered all my parts on Thursday and had them on Monday. Great service from the powerstrokeshop.com. I just finished installing them this evening and man what a difference. It honestly is tight just like when she was new. I always liked my truck, but now I love it again. I think mine have been going for quite sometime. I don't remember it driving this good in quite awhile.
