Default Re-align after leveling kit?

I searched but didn't find what I was looking for, even after searching with a few key words.

Did I read on here that I need to have the front end aligned after installing a 2" HBS leveling kit?

I started the wheel, tire, leveling kit decision process about a month ago and thought I read it was necessary. If it is necessary, why?

Thanks for your help......again. Hopefully next time I won't spend so much time trying to decide what to buy.

its necessary because lifting the front end screws with the geometry of the suspension. i just leveled my truck today and you can look at my tires and see that they are cocked to the outside at the top!!!! im getting it aligned tomorrow morning.

not nessasary on a 2500/3500, but is on the 1500's, but still never a bad idea to get it checked

I had mine done, per the advice of the folks who did the kit.
