Suspension

Whats up guys, i have a an issue going on with my truck. i have a 2008 lariat 4x4, i jumped it a while back out on the ranch. ever since than it has not been right, i have broken some ball joints, replaced both cv axles, last month i replaced the right wheel bearing ,than driving friday i heard a rubbing noise and breaks were real soft. So drove to the local autozone jacked the truck up and the wheel bearing assembly was lose , like wallowed out. i replaced the left side wheel bearing like a year ago. My question is there something with my suspension that would cause these parts to where out premature?

how many miles "" Ball joints and wheel bearings are normally done around 100K miles, give or take.

Maybe next time don't "Dukes of Hazzard" your truck while out on the ranch...

...did you video the jump at least? We'd like to see.

"EXCESS" could damage ball joints or some suspension parts........ I don't see how any misalignment or worn parts would effect the wheel bearings long term.
