    4 ball joints - 2 upper, 2 lower.

    Your concern may be caused by multiple possible causes. Have the vehicle lifted and front end inspected for looseness. Sure, the ball joints may be worn, but also the tie rod ends and wheel bearings could cause your issue too. Following repairs, certainly have a wheel alignment performed so that you do not continue to wear your tires.
