BMR trailing arms
I just got my trailing arms and bushings installed last night. At first glance it looks like they have caused the wheel to have a little bit of negative camber and it seems as if it made my car pull right more than it used to. Do I need to get an alignment after installing these?

I would highly suggest getting an alignment after modifying any suspension components. I have not installed these yet but am assuming they changed your toe/camber specs.

Toe is adjusted at the toe links and camber is adjusted at the lower control arms so you'd think the alignment wouldn't change so long as the BMR trailing arms are the same length as the factory arms, but as suggested an alignment is recommended when modifying suspension.

Our Arms are the same length as OEM, but things can change when you are taking off & putting new parts on.
Read up on Timing Bushings and yes I would recommend an Alignment |

Thanks for the responses everyone! Definitely going to get it aligned and I'll try to find a shop that can do the bushing timing as well. I had never heard of that till today.
