Default O6 Leveling Kits, Bad Shake

Hey Guys...I Have and 06 1500 quad...Just had a 2" leveling kit installed on it....Looks great but I have a horrible shake now...Starts at about 30mph and gets worst from.. Now I know your supposed to get it alined after you have it installed, I havent. Will that fix the problem or should I have something else done too.... Thanks

Do the alignment, but also check the coil spacer install, make sure they are seated on the bushings firmly!!!

when the spacers are put on above the struts it drastically changes angles. this causes the camber to come out of wack. So when you have it aligned have them adjust that too.
