Alignment after control arm package install

I will be installing the Pfadt Rear Control arm package soon and was wondering if any alignment work would be necessary? Currently the car has 2600 miles. Thanks in advance for the help guys!

You can get it pretty darn close by marking your eccentric bolts before removing them, but a 4-wheel alignment is still recommended after changing any suspension control arms.

Like Pete would say.....$100 alignment is a hell of a lot cheaper than new tires.
