    So I finally got my c4 low pro bumper in, just got it back from powder coating (same day turnaround, I was amazed if anyone in the twin cities needs powder coating, these guys rocked!) and was planning on installing it, and my new springs (replacing my 887's with 886's to compensate for the added weight) this weekend. Then it hit me that I will need to align it when I am done, and all the shops will be closed till wednesday. I was planning on using my truck this weekend for family stuff. Would love to have everything installed, but I guess what I am asking is, if I mark the alignment, and put it back where it came from, do you think about 200 miles of driving till it can be aligned would be a bad thing?

    I am chomping at the bit to get everything installed!

    What if your alignment shop was 200 miles away, what would you do then?

    Just saying.

    The height difference shouldn't be dramatic enough to throw you out of wack if you mark the lca
