Axle bearings??

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 31-Mar-02 AT 11:22 PM (EST)]I have a 93 F-150 x-tended cab with a 351w. It is 4x4 and i put a 6" skyjacker lift on it. My problem is this: When i back my truck up my front tires will become misaligned and the bottom of the tire will stick out from the side of the truck whereas the top will be tucked up under the truck. I have replaced chewed up axle/hub bearings several times and it is getting costly. Not to mention it is scary when you start hearing grinding sounds in your axle. I was wondering if anyone could lead me in the right direction. PLEASE!! I need to fix this problem ASAP!
Thanx

Mine did that all the time also. I never had to repalce any parts because of it though. It just looked like it had a major problem when the truck had backed into a parking spot.

Well my bearings may not be burning up b/c of it but it only makes sense. I would like to fix it if possible.
