Hi guys,

Dumb question... (Sorry about that in advance - I'm technically challanged)
I will be getting the stock front sway bar off my 2005 4.0L non-PP, and will be replacing it with GT take off front and rear sway bars. Will I need to do a wheel alignment after the origianl bar comes off and gets replaced with the GT bar, or does the replacement not change the front end a bit... If someone know, maybe you could let me know... I'd really appreciate it. Thank you in advance...

 

As long as you don't touch anything except the endlink connections (and the chassis brackets), no. The sta-bar does not control the front wheel geometry, only how far the car moves in roll.

Alignment (checking it, at least) is required only if you disassemble the suspension or steering linkages. Strut bearings, struts, knuckles (aka spindles),ball joints, control arms, control arm bushings, tierod ends kind of stuff.

I second that comment. A front alignment is not needed.
