So whats the answer.
|
Im fixing to put rancho shocks on my 05 supercrew. The front ones are quicklift shocks. Ive been told 2 different things. One shop said I would need an alignment, one shop said i would not. Ive been looking on here at different threads and I keepp reading the same thing. Some peoplle say you dont need one, and others say you do. Any help?

I would absolutely do an alignment after any change to the suspension. The last thing you want to do is spend a lot of money on new tires after the shock install to only find out a few thousand miles later that you needed an alignment.

You need an alignment if you use them to lift the front.

Any time you change the front suspension height/geometry, you need an alignment.
