You don't need alignment after wheel hub replacement. :!:

Alignment is needed ONLY if tie rod was removed or replaced.

So I went to get an alignment today and they said they couldn't do it because the wheel bearing is bad.
Any one tried these from fcp ? http://www.fcpeuro.com/products/volvo-w ... ar-9140844
