Alignment After Rear Lift?

I just purchased new wheels, and would like to get them wrapped with new tires and mounted ASAP. I would also like to get my front alignment done at the same time. However, I am still deciding if I want to swap my OME 906's out for 890's or 891's in the rear. If I do, I would probably install the Toytec panhard drop at the same time. Should I wait till I decide on the rear lift before getting my front alignment, or will the lift and panhard drop not make a difference if I do them a few weeks after the alignment? Although I am very anxious to mount the new wheels/tires, i would rather wait and do things right once than rushing the process. Thanks.

You don't have to worry about the rear...it doesn't get aligned since its a solid axle. We only require a 2 wheel alignment. Go ahead and get your front aligned and change the springs out later.

I would say if you are going to be lifting the rear 3 inches higher than where its currently at, i would bring it in and see if they can add some caster.

If you are only going up 1-1.5 inches, don't worry about it

^agreed on that. The caster will be out of alignment in the front if the rear goes up ~3"
