Default Front Shock & Strut assembly repair

I have a 2004 dodge stratus sxt sedan 2.7l and just replaced the rear shocks and struts myself with no issues. But I have never done the front so wanted to replace them with the shock and strut kit with control arm and ball joint already attached. I was wondering if this was something I could do myself with no special tools and most importantly will I need to get the car aligned or looked at by a actual mechanic after replacing the front myself?

You always shoud get an alignment after replacing front end components. As far as being able to do it yourself, can't eally say. You would need to lift the vehicle off the ground and have the necessary tools, especially an impact wrench.
