Do I Need an Alignment?
On the front ive done passenger side ball joints, and removed coils, shocks and sway bar end links to put in coil spacers.The front end seems to be the exact same as it was before, but do you think i need an alignment after all that?

If you didn't mess with the tie rods then it should be about where it was It all really depends on how long since it was done the last time

We pulled the tie rod end for the ball joints.. thats all. The alignment was done in december, spun out on ice and slammed the front tire into a snowbank, it drives smooth, but the steering wheel is a little offset.

If you put coil spacers in, the raised the front end. That will cause toe in, probably not enough to notice but it may start to wear the tiresover time. I would set toe and center the steering wheel.
