New wishbones

Done my wishbones today, pretty rusted up so it was a nightmare and ruined a ball joint pinch bolt. Do I need to get 4 wheel alignment done or is regular alignment acceptable?
Also anyone got a spare ball joint pinch bolt they want to sell me?

Rears aren't adjustable anyway without the use of shims so 4 wheel won't be needed.

I'd personally get the tracking done by a hunter machine. Fantastic bit of kit and you get a printout to show all your angles.

Then you can buy the right correction shims if they know how to use it.

I've used a random shouldered bolt I had lying around but had to washer it to stay on the thread, not ideal but temporary.

Tracking was out before and seems worse now

One thing I forgot to mention was that my arb seems to be pushed over to the passenger side slightly more than the driver side. With both fronts off the ground it nearly touches the subframe on the driver side? Tried knocking it back over which improved it a bit as the one bush clamp wouldn't sit in the bush correctly.
