Why is my car pulling to the left (and steering wheel pull) and tyres worn on the inside ?

In December suspension work was done by a friend on my car, this include track rod ends so obviously after these were done the wheel was well out. Got tracking done right after, however the steering wheel still pulls to the left slightly and I discovered both front tires were worn on the inside.
I went for a free suspension test last week, revealed track rod ends were worn ( despite only being fitted few months ago) wheel bearing is bad and axial rod slight play.
Garage said steering wheel pulls because of bad tie rod ends, but I'm confused as the car has had this pull right after the track rod ends were replaced in December and even after getting the tracking done.

Does anybody have any idea what the problem may be before I pay to get all this work re-done as I don't want to have the same issue for the third time.

Do you think it was bad parts, bad fitting, maybe he fitted other suspension parts wrong ?


thanks
 
You need a suspension specialist to sort out the cause of the worn parts as well as the alignment settings.
 
It can be also used by deformation in the strut tower. The strut itself may have silightly different angle and cause the tire wear. It can be partially resolved by alignment though.
