Default Leveling kit

Talked to a couple people about getting a better leveling kit, and had the answer that nobody will install them because they "screw up the alignment". Is this even true? Really want to re-level my truck higher. If I were to get a leveling kit, and buy new tires will a shop be able to do an alignment on my truck correctly?
Thanks

I had no issues with getting an alignment on my truck after having 2" leveling struts installed. It goes down the road nice and straight now, 8 months later too.

we do them all the time in my shop....when I leveled mine (2.5" Ready Lift billet) it was only a total of 3° off and 1/4" toed in....not bad in my book, and super easy to fix

Well that's good to hear, since I just ordered my leveling kit today. Went with a 2.5 inch Rough Country

I got the rough country as well. Just make sure you get an alignment right away and everything is good.
