Hey guys i have a question. how bad off is the alignment after you put on a leveling kit?

Cause i am going to level my truck at work next week and its going to be a few days till i can get to an alignment shop.

Thanks in advance

 

you will be ok for a few days, just dont wait too long.

i installed mine on a saturday night, when i got home on sunday i had a message that i had to go out of town for my work. i was gone until thursday. i believe i put about 600 miles on my truck before i got back home. nothing went wrong with mine, so you should be ok. just make sure everything is all tightened up!

 

ok thanks. how much did the alignment cost you?

Wheel alignment is all labor and involves no parts, so rates vary based on the local cost of living. According to Washington Post columnist Pat Goss, wheel alignment shouldn't be too commonplace, "You actually have to bend steel to affect alignment." Some tire centers recommend having wheels aligned annually or whenever the car starts to pull or drift to one side when steering, or when there is uneven tread wear on the tires.
Typical costs:

• A two wheel alignment (such as a front-end alignment) can cost $30-$65 based on the local cost of living.
• A four wheel alignment can cost $50-$95 based on the local cost of living

I pay about $75 for a four wheel alignment at a local Firestone shop.

 

i think mine was $69.

 

Yes you do need an alignment, all they have to do is back off the toe in setting. Leveling kits give you negative toe
