Smile resealed oil pan now what?

I got my oil pan resealed last weekend, yeah!. Wasn't as hard as I expected, but I did run into few problems. I did have to drop the subframe to get the oil pan out, let me tell you getting those 6 bolts off the subframe were a bitch! Now I heard that it now needs a front alignment. Is that true?

any help? thanks

many places will check your alignment for free. If it's out of whack, get it aligned, otherwise don't worry about it.

on topic of the oil pan, i rebuilt my engine and sealed it, but i have a nasty leak coming from somewhere on the drivers side.. any ideas of what it could be if not the pan.. seems to only do it when the car is cold and not running.

You don't have to remove or adjust the lower control arms to do that so NO you do not need a allignment.
