After installing the Timbren Front Suspension Enhancement # TGMFK25D in your 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 DRW 4WD Long Bed you will not need an alignment.

This is due to this suspension enhancement not requiring you to remove or modify any of your suspension components like control arms or tie rod ends, so your alignment will not change.

I included a video of the # TGMFK25D for you to take a look at.
