Changed front wheel coil spring, do I need to re-alligne wheel ?

Feb 27, 2004 2 Replies

Hi. The front-left coil spring broke ( thanks to this so cold winter ). A small garage changed it, but charge me for the wheels allignement, saying it must be done since it as to disamble everything.



But I heard from a friend that was not necessary.



Is that right ?



Thank you

your friend was wrong, it needed to be re-aligned.

Ask your "friend" if he knows what camber is and how it effects wear patterns on tires, let me know his response.

Thank you for your response
