Anyone have alignment problems with dros on daily drivers? How can ya tell if you're aligned if there are no psi gauges like air???

If your really worried about not looking 100% straight get a extension for your switches hop outside and get em right.

Sure do.
I had my truck lowered with 2" spindles & 3" coils before I installed hydros. If you dont have spindles and are planning on getting them. Install them first and get an alignment. After that, you should be fine.

I ahve been running hydros for 4 years with out an alignment and my tires are fine.

If you are worried, just keep an eye on the tread wear patterns.

Peace

The only thing that sucks is that when u get ure truck aligned u have to hit damn near that same spot e very time u lift up ure truck, Hence Air gauges and alignments are awesome! w00t! What i did with my hydros, is lift up my truck until i can turn, (look out ure window and turn the wheel) Boom had them align it there, then all u need to do is lift up ure truck until u untuck the tire and u will be aligned properly.
