Sup guys.

This past weekend I stalled some rokkor EP3 specific coil overs. Followed all instructions and greased up all my top hats.
I did not however install the rear camber or front camber bolts yet. Too lazy and I have to get a bigger heater for my garage.
The current thread count is as follows: front- all the way down. The rears are at 2.5cm to the last thread.

So for ha-ha's I took a spin around our condo driveway. SLOPPY as all hell. Steering wheel felt it was fighting slightly in the opposite direction.
Should a proper alignment fix this, or is there another issue I should address prior to getting an alignment?

It needs alignment.

just got my coils in and the alignment helped tremendously. make sure your tie rods are securely fastened too specially if you changed em

Hopefully your tie rods have enough thread

I never even swapped tie rods. I'm planing on buying the Moog ones just in case when I get the alignment.
I just remember when I did bound control coil overs on my 91 corolla the car drove fine right after. No sloppyness whatsoever.

you should definitely get in the camber kits before you go for alignment, but yes. alignment will help.
