Hey, so this is probably a dumb question but I am installing my "lift" this weekend that consists of JBA top plates, a .5" clevis shim, and two extra rear upper isolators (3 total per side). my question is, do I need A four wheel alignment or just a front end alignment once I am finished with this mod? I've never worked on anything that was coil sprung in the rear before, only leaf sprung, and I never had to have a 4 wheel alignment, so I thought I'd check to make sure. Thanks! |

Hmm so when I done my full spring lift I only get the front end aligned? That doesn't seem right in my logic |

There is no such thing as a front end alignment.There is only a 4 wheel alignment regardless is there is any adjustment in the rear or not.The front toe is set based on the rear toe(adjustable or not) so your not dog tracking. |

Beat me to it. Well said. No need to worry about the rear or the terminology really, get it on and get an alignment! I only purchase lifetime alignments, but that is because I have it realigned at least twice a year. |

Thanks for the info guys. I had a shop tell me it was $59.99 for a front end alignment and $69.99 for a rear end alignment... I guess I won't be going there for any kind of alignment knowing what I know now  In any event, I've got all this fun stuff to put on tomorrow morning
