Finally going to do the shackle and coil spacer lift. Anyone from California doing there's also? Maybe we can meet up and do them both. Do I have to purchase anything before getting an alignment?

Where in L.A. are you ? We are in Arcadia, getting ready to change out front steering and replace radius arm bushings
 






and I'll be doing front brakes on the 4th gen. Your welcome to stop by and we can throw it all together.:thumbsup:
 






Depending on what camber eccentrics you have installed up front (they vary) you might need to replace those if they don't provide enough range of motion to get the alignment set right. When I did the same type of lift, my stock eccentrics had enough adjustability in them, but only just, and I sacrificed a tiny bit of caster actually. Most alignment shops carry the camber eccentrics at a slightly marked up price but since it is hard to know which ones you need, just be prepared to bite the bullet.
 






Wish I would've seen the reply earlier. I'm always up for a mechanic get together. I'm in Downey
