Integrated wheel end?

Are you talking about the hubs with wheel bearing assembly? If so then no you need no alignment after changing.

Integrated wheel end,.... LOL Maybe I'm old and slow but after 30 years wrenching, I have never heard of that.

Ohhh ok I know what your talking about now LOL Replacing those have no effect on alignment.

Most commonly known as steering knuckles or spindles. (My generation)
