Control arm - alignment needed? 850 1995

You'll probably need an alignment.

Beware of cheapo Chinese control arms.

MY FCP unit crashed immediately since they substituted a common soft steel
hex bolt instead of a machined and hardened pin to secure the ball joint.
The bolt deformed allowing slop at the control arm.

I'd get OEM control arms/ball joints, maybe Tasca, check with IPD.
