    Installed 5100s yesterday and part of the process was loosening the lower control arm bolts. Will this mess with the camber/ caster or should it still be ok. Thanks

    Yes anytime suspension is changed you should get an alignment. It might feel like it's riding fine, but I'd bet you a 12 pack of beer you're out of spec.

    I would only to be safe, it sucks to discover this once the tire has worn incorrectly. I have my alignments checked regularly since a pothole can throw them off
