I did it all by myself. Not hard, just time consuming. Shop around for various kits to get the best pricing - that's what I did. Ended up piecing it together as I liked different parts of different kits.

I did get it aligned and the caster was out - about -0.2deg on each side. I had to put some caster/camber adjuster shims on the top ball joint. I did not have an issue with bump steer, and still don't.
