I would get an alignment because suspension parts were taken off so its automatically out of adjustment. Get the alignment done. now for camber arms that really depends on your drop. You may be able to get the rear camber to adjust enough so you wont need it or you might need but you wont know until you get the alignment done.

Seems like you've made up you mind before even asking. Good luck

After they settle you will need one. You took it apart and out factory spec, it will need corrected. On swift springs, I only did rear camber arms and toe bolts. The rear went back into spec. The front was still out.

I switched to bc coils and now need front arms and another alignment.
