By bevel, do you mean the angle at which your front tires sit resting on the ground? If so, yes, you will need to perform a wheel alignment.

Lots of opinions and threads on it, 4.56, etc.
Here's a thread with some opinions https://dodgeforum.com/forum/4th-gen...0-swap-qs.html

With the 37" tires i would suggest 4.56 gears, you will not regret it.

What is the advantage to changing the gears to 4.56s and are you changing gears only in the rear end.
What is the cost to change gears?
