I'm getting an alignment tomorrow and haven't installed my new trackbar. Will installing the new non-adjustable track bar effect my alignment at all? I'm 99 percent sure it shouldn't. I just don't want to pay $60 and screw up my new alignment.

Thanks

 

The only thing that would be different is the bushings,if they are a good shop they will not even align it unless everything is in good shape,so installing a new track bar after the fact is not going to hurt anything,but it would be alot wiser to do it before hand just so it is in place. Because the only thing you are really changing is the bushings when you change the track bar.
They should check everything before they align,that way the alignment will last.

 

give them the new track bar, they will install it before they do the alignment. if that's all it needs.

 

How much should they charge to replace the track bar? I normally do all of my repairs but with school and work I have no time.

 

It depends on the shop,some will charge a full hour,small privatley owned may charge $30-$40 bucks,it just depends on who it is.
