Probably, anytime you change something on the front end, you probably need to have the alignment checked.

yup, you will need an alignment.

you could pay a shop, or do it yourself. either way, you need one.

assuming you have the factory setup for steering, then you definitely will need an alignment, your steering wheel will probably be off pretty good.

I did not even read your post... if you have to ask, then YES you need an alignment
