After installing the bushes you have to get an alighnment done dont you?

So you have to factor another 100 bucks or so into the total cost???

Yes, mine was WAY out after the bush install, something like 6mm of cross tow. Get it booked in ASAP after you do the bushes.

Yep, you take the alignment bolts out to get to the bushes, and the alignment will change slightly with the new bushes even if you didn't...
