If you just have the springs changed must you do a wheel alignment?

How much lift are you going for? At 2 inces I would not be worried. The only adjustable component is the tow in/out and with a 2 inch lift it should not change. More than that then you will need to look into panhard length to get you wheels back to even left to right, maybe longer (adjustable) lower control arms to bring the caster back into spec.

Nice stance JAG.

I've got a set of 8179's on their way with the same size and bs, looks really good!

And how are you coping with the stock driveshaft having 3" and 4" ? Or is yours a manual?
