| Post subject: | Alignment After Ball Joint Recall |
Is an alignment required after the ball joints are replaced? I'm being told "no" by the dealership, but I don't buy it. My guess is that they won't pay for it as part of the recall. |

The alignment should be the same as it was prior to the new ball joints installed. |

Your are not altering the suspension's geometry, so I would say no. |

After thinking things thru that was what I decided as well. They are taking things apart, but as far as I can tell none of the work involves changing or disrupting the elements that control the variables in an alignment (toe, cast, camber, etc). I'll be putting a lift on shortly after getting mine done so I'll do an alignment then. |
