Re: What would cause this tire wear?
Unless it has some mechanical issue, like a bent housing or spindle, it is probably just under-inflation and lack of rotation. The tire tilt into a turn pretty heavily and this puts extra pressure in the outer edge of the tire. When under-inflated the outer lugs of aggressive mud tires get worn on the trailing edge, making them look like saw teeth. Many guys run them a lower pressure though to keep more of the tread in the street. If you inflate them to 30-35 PSI, they wont wear like that, but the outer lugs will not touch the ground on hard pavement either...
BTW, if the hubs were unlocked, welded spiders wouln't make any difference.....other than still being a stupid thing to do to a truck.

Learn from the mistakes of others, you won't live long enough to make them all yourself...
Bad planning on your part does not necessarily constitute an instant emergency on my part....
The great thing about being a pessimist is that you are either pleasantly surprised or right.
