was wondering if i remove this brace and reinstall it.. do i need an alighmnet??

since the brace is connected to the compression rods.

 

It's not directly connected to the compression arms, you'll be fine. Only thing I can tell you though is the bolts on mine were very, very hard to get off. I ended up having to use one of those wrenches with the joint and long handle, place a jack under the wrench and apply pressure upwards so there was some of the weight of the car on it. Otherwise the metal on these bolts was soft and tear.

Good luck... you don't need an alignment after the removal/reinstallation.

 

Nope, no alignment needed.

 

Thanks!
