after the installation of springs its always necessary for an alignment. if not, you won't be getting even tire wear.

no you dont this is just a choice but its always better to have them. get an alignment a couple weeks after you install them to let it settle. if you notice any unusual tire wear take it in!

you dont need camber links if you stay under 2 inches. if you get stechs youre gonna need camber links. and YES an alignment is a must!

with trds you definitely don't need camber links. the drop is way too subtle. even when i had my hotchkis which was basically a close-to-flush drop all around, i didn't get any camber links.
