Default Strut replacement....

Do I need to do a alignment after installing new Monroe Quikstrut assys. I read in the Hanes manual that only toe in is adj on this model. Is this correct? I've always heard you need a front end alighnment after strut replacement Thanks

yes because the struts kick out where they attach to knuckle the bolt holes there are slotted for adjustment

makes the top or tires tilt inwards outwards at top, as pivoting on the balljoint
