Any alignment recommendations after BMR non adjustable U&L trailing arks & arms?
I’ve emailed the GM techs at BMR but have not heard anything back. I bought the non adjustable U&L trailing arms and the upper control arms as well as the cradle lock out kit. The shop is asking if BMR has any specific recommendations on doing the alignment afterwards, for a street car.
Anyone have any input?

Could you share what they recommended? It could help future purchasers.

I'm pretty sure they recommend at least getting your alignment checked whenever you touch the suspension.

Sorry guys, here is what they recommended:
The non adjustable upper & lower trailing arms as well as the upper control arm are built to the exact length of the stock parts so you could probably get away without doing an alignment if that’s all you were changing. An alignment would still be best though. However, with the cradle lock out, it’s paramount that you get an alignment afterwards. They stated for whoever is the installer, make sure the cradle is centered back up. Then since I won’t be taking the car on a road course, they recommend just putting the alignment back to factory specs.
