Default alignment after clutch change?

I changed my clutch. Do I need an alignment? It does not pull as far as I can tell.

Any thoughts?

Nope, nothing in the clutch removal/reinstall changes the suspension. The only thing to make sure is that you put the steering column back onto the same splines it came from.

I don't wish to be the bearer of bad news but at least a front wheel alignment must be done. Helm manual: Page 13-72, Step 40.
"Check the front wheel alignment (camer angle, caster angle, and front toe)."

When doing a clutch job, the engine must be lowered by lowering the engine cradle, which is part of the sub-frame. The front suspension components are attached to this sub-frame. When this frame is lowered and raised again, alignment can be "put off".
