    I have been fighting a wheel-hop issue (separate thread).

    I had an alignment last week, then replaced my LCA's on Saturday. Will this necessitate a new alignment?

    Technically yes. However the specs should be pretty close that you may not notice any pull at highway speeds.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    There is no pull - it's the same as it was before.

    The guy @ Checker said that the new LCA's were an "improved design" with slightly different geometry. That's my only worry here...

    Did they look different to you?

    If they are different, you know what to do.

    No, they looked stock to me.

    The car still handles fine (doesn't pull etc).

    I replaced in pairs to prevent weirdness.
