I didn't have to when I replaced my front coffin arms and control arm links.

BTW, I'm using Mevotech for the rear upper control arms.

I use �ro coffin arms and one lasted 2 years(24K) before making noise again.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I use �ro coffin arms and one lasted 2 years(24K) before making noise again. ($257.60 for 4 from RockAuto)
Any less often than that would be a bother, so I'd be afraid to install the really cheap SKP or UltraPower branded ones.
You can get 4 of them for $158.80(UltraPower) (without shipping) from RockAuto.
BTW, I'm using Mevotech for the rear upper control arms. ($276.60 for 4 from RockAuto)
The forward control arm links I'm using EPS. ($297.96 for 4 from Amazon)
I upgraded my rear toe links (to adjustable ones) and my front drop links (Also adjustable) when I installed my Feal coilovers last year.
Almost all of my components are new, which makes my car feel brand new...except for the plastic squeek that's driving me NUTS!
Most of my dash trim is off the car while I try to find the squeek.
I'm gonna find and kill that squeek...eventually!
After my recommended Rein motor mount has failed a year later and only 4Kish miles, I'm leery of anything and everything. Sometimes a cheap part is worth buying vs a "name brand" that will fail just as fast if not sooner...
I didn't have to when I replaced my front coffin arms and control arm links.
Of course if you're also installing your coilovers, or any of the adjustable components like I did last year, then yes you'll need an alignment.
I'm going to replace all the control arms in the rear of my car soon(still waiting on EPS control arms from Amazon) and I'm, going to lower my car about an inch all the way around.
I'll go ahead and get it re-aligned afterwards.
I've never seen any that I considered inexpensive.
There are some cheaper than others, but all are too much for me to want to add.
I am able to adjust my camber at the adjustable camber plates that came with my coilovers.
The difference between camber plates, and camber plates + adjustable lower arms is a track/performance level thing.
You cant adjust bump steer/ackerman with only a top adjust, it takes all three axis of adjustment to get he last 2% ,
I would not worry about it on a street car generally,,, autocross/track car,, totally worth it.
