Default Alignment ??

Will dropping the tranny cause the alignment to go off?

TIA

What model do you have? If any part of the sub frame is removed, the alignment will shift (just a little). If you use the alignment holes in the subframe and if you are carefull to match the the head of the bolts with the old marks on the subframe, you will have it aligned almost perfect...

Im talking about the tranny, like you have to take off the axels and the lower ball joints. Will doing this mess up the wheel alignment in the front?

Dude...Some models (Accord, etc.) require you to remove part of the subframe when you remove the tranny. Some models do not (Civic, Integra)....

And, no... Lower balljoints and axles won't change your alignment.
