My alignment place wouldn't mess with the alignment camber bolts. I had to eye it and basically make them as positive as i could and it was in spec and they turned out to be super close to each other. There is no need to take off the axle nuts on the front. Check the bump stops, mine were fine, I cleaned and lubed them. To get the control arm bolts out in the front they are spined so beat with a hammer may need heat. I also bought thru sockets from Craftsman but they were short so I guess thru deep sockets are needed. The end link nuts are locking so I would recommend a couple new ones in case you have to heat one or two to get them off. The rears were a bigger pain in the ass as they are very tight. I had to spin the spring to a side that doesn't sit correctly in the spring seat to get them in and then spin them once they were in to hit the spring stop. Pro tip:Once done on a level surface loosen the strut bar and then retighten so there isn't any weird stress on the frame/body.Feel free to reach out with any questions. The car is substantially lower. I need to buy higher sidewall tires for my winter steelies so keep that in mind. Test all the usual driveways so you don't jack anything under the car. I had to grind down some concrete on the entrance to my garage because the middle muffler was catching.
