Alignment after a new front axle?????

[Snowgeek]

So i think i know the answer, but after doing a front axle replacement on my lifted 2004 awd do i need to have it re aligned? The alignment was just done and is spot on moment but with brand new rubber and a big road trip coming soon I want to do it the right way.

Thanks for your input.

No need to do one unless you removed one or more of the control arms or replaced a tie rod. Just replacing a CV half shaft isn't a call for alignment even though the ball joint(s) were separated.

Thanks lifted.... I also called my wheel shop and they said the same thing
