Tracking, maybe a stupid question.

[DrR]

If I get my tracking done, then afterwards replace the shocks will it mess it up again?

 

[Fred@BTM]

[DrR]

Even if there standard Renault ones?

 

[Ali]

Yep!

 

[DrR]

Arg convinced something is wrong with my car, but don't wanna do one then find out it's the other.

 

[Butler205]

Yep!

Why?

^ ideally, you should re-track the car after having replaced any major components as it'll likely have disturbed the alignment of everything else (even if you've replaced like for like).
everything flexes anyway; if you put a car up on a full chassis alignment ramp, you can push the various components by hand (the movement is obviously in the rubber bushes) and vary the readings quite a bit - so these things are constantly changing as the car is being driven anyway.
