It should not require an alignment: the joints fit tightly in the recesses.

See the 700/900 FAQ at the drop-down menu above right.

I got the lower ball joints replaced & i think it drives worse than it did. I can hit a raised up place in the road or a pot hole & its very very squirely. I know it needs struts. I put new Mischlens on the front, but not alot of difference. Goes down a smooth road great, but somethin 'aint right. tires,tie rod ends & lower ball joints so far. 275,000 miles. suggestions? thanks,
Steve
