Default Alignment right after upper control arm replacment

I replaced my upper control arms yesterday ( moog ) and i got the bolts in almost the exact spot they were in. Should i wait a certain amount of time before the alignment or should i get it done today?

If they are torqued correctly just go ahead and get it done.

I usually get the alignment done as soon as possible.

Alignment was SPOT on. But the tie rods need done now. ( the toe couldn't be set ) so back to moog.
