need for alignment?
Putting in new springs and shocks all around this weekend. Chilton says I need to detach sway bar, loosen lower ball joint, and loosen bolts holding on lower a arm in order to remove the front springs. Chilton also says it's a good idea to do full alignment afterwards.
if it turns out all the loosening is necessary to get the springs out, do I need to do an alignment afterwards?
if it turns out it isn't necessary, do I need to do an alignment afterwards?
the new springs are the Moog variable-rate compressors. They're OEM height, but the existing springs are original, and likely sag a bit (I can't find original ride height online). The rears definitely need a replace-- left side sits about 2 inches lower than right side in the rear.
