Ball Joints.

Stupid question here but I am going to ask... Should there be a front end wheel alignment done when I do ball joints?


Thanks,
Brian

I am after replacing my Ball joints and ties rods because of the camber settings on the ball joint could possibly be moved when the new ball joints are installed... I am only paying $59 just to make certain everything is aligned

Definitely,
If those are worn much there could be a notable difference in toe in specifically. Mine moved by 1/4 inch or more. Was towed in more than 1/4. Paid a shop, they said they did. Chewed outside off the tires. Did myself. Found adjuster rusted tight. Ugh...
