After replacing both front springs on a vehicle, what must also be performed?

Aligning the vehicle after replacing the front springs is crucial because the new springs can affect the ride height and suspension geometry. When springs are replaced, they can cause changes in camber, caster, and toe angles, which are essential aspects of wheel alignment. If these angles are not restored to the manufacturer’s specifications, it can lead to poor handling, tire wear, and overall instability while driving.

Proper alignment ensures that all four wheels are pointing in the correct direction and that the vehicle's weight is evenly distributed across the tires. This enhances safety, performance, and tire longevity. While other options may seem relevant, such as replacing the rear springs or shocks, they are not necessary solely due to the replacement of the front springs. Similarly, a power steering pressure test is not related to a spring replacement, as it deals more with steering system performance rather than suspension setup.
