Bilstein Leveling kit

Just put a Bilstein 2.5 inch leveling kit in last wed. The kit came with new coils and new shocks.

The only thing it didn't come with was the trailing arm relocation bracket? I have no clue why a expensive kit like this would not include this?

Anyway long story short, my drivers side wheel is sticking out 2 inch's more than the other wheels. I ordered the part from another distributor and it should be in Monday. Do I need to do another alignment after I install this?

My 4.5" RC kit came with a relocation bracket. If your driver side is sticking out that far your passenger side should be sunk in 2" then. It's always recommended to do an alignment after any suspension changes.
