Yeah I know right. I need to start making bumper stickers that say:

"I'm not drunk, I'm lowered."
"I'm not drunk, I'm avoiding pot holes."
"I'm not drunk, this winter sucks."
"I'm not drunk, these roads suck."
"I'm not drunk, my local government refuses to fix these roads."

Haha.

He needs to get it checked. Thats all any of us know without actually seeing the car. On a previous car I lowered it and carefully put all the pieces back exactly where they were (could tell because of the undercoating) and when I brought it in for an alignment it was still fine. He might not need to get an alignment, its impossible to say based on some text on a screen. He does need to get it checked though.

Just so everyone knows I'm not as retarded as you are all acting. Was a mechanic for 5 years and now work at a toyota supplier. I have tons of experience doing alignments. I worked at a dealership tho. So never del with lowering vehicles. I also have no experience with scions. Just got mine so a lot to learn here. Didn't know what to expect. Isn't that the point of these forums ? It's for more than just showing off what you've done, no ? Also, xbox is blasphemy to me. I've been building gaming computers on the side for years. My i7 and 780 eat xbox's for breakfast. I knew my question was pretty stupid when I asked it, but no need to rip on me lol.

You stupid fvck. I swear to god this better not be towards me. I just responded to one of these clowns about how I WASN'T calling you stupid or that your question was stupid. I was flaming the CLOWNS that couldn't help you, NOT YOU. But now with this random insinuating post has me pis.sed because clearly there isn't anyone else you could possibly be thinking of that was giving you a hard time...

Then he asked about camber, which means he must have done some searching at least because he knew it was somewhat needed if he went low enough, but the reason I laughed was because he didn't know enough that an inch would possibly need camber adjustment. So I answered that as well (Again, no need to call me a villain). Then you call me a villain. I am hero. I saved this pathetic thread from the hell in which it was headed. So you don't make any sense once again.
This is my post responding to dipsh.t KILLER.

Please now explain to me what hell you meant in that blabber about people thinking your stupid. Please explain.

yea i'm going to kill this before it gets worse.

Closure:
OP is fine your question is fine. There is no such thing as a stupid question. But there are stupid answers....and everyone except criminal has been giving you stupid answers.

anytime you touch anything with suspension...the spring, the strut, the tires, the wheel size, the bolts, anything...get an alignment. Is there a chance that everything gets installed and the alignment is perfect? sure there's always a chance for anything. but when should you leave modding your car up to chance?
