Im going to start one of my little piggy banks and i need to know how much to put back each time and how often.
I was wondering if many ppl ran the lift without al's A arms or if it could be done

Not a Franky but just as high and I ran stock arms for about 70,000 miles and they are still tight and useable, just had an opportunity to buy Als and did. Also a good ..repeat good, alignment person can take the time and get the alignment pretty close to where it will not give you any wear or pulling problems with the stock arms.
Granted it maybe better with Als arms but lots have ran without

just my quarters worth

I have stock uppers on right now, just installed a frankenlift, I was able to get the alignment completely back within specs but just barely.

I've got stock ones with the Franky. There tight and my alignment guy can get camber and toe into specs. He cannot do caster because there is no caster adjustment. All I know is that it drives straight and I'm happy with it.
