changing rear struts
Well, as an undercar tech, here's my opinion...
If you trace the lower part of the strut with a marker (marking the relationship between the strut and knuckle), you will have the same camber settings as the old struts did...
Depends on how long it's been since it was aligned, and if it was a 4 wheel alignment or not. It really doesnt matter much if you rotate your tires every few oil changes, but, you should have it done regaurdless due to milage, pothole impacts, and spring sag. WIth the new higher ride hight, it will be off.
Make sure to torque those bolts to at least 140ft lbs, else you get problems with camber changing itself in hard turns...
