So for $2k you get: bearing, hub, tie rods and an alignment? Or does that include the LCAs too? If it includes LCAs then that's a good deal!

Those guys at Columbia are good. I used to go wheelin' with one of their founders (he's moved on now)

That's for everything, lower control arms, brake pads and new rotors included! And their replacing the whole wheel hub assembly, not just the bearings. They also got it all done in a half day! Great guys, even took me through all my old parts and showed me the damage. Can't wait to drive it! They just drove it over to get the alignment!

Now, Remember that car, with newly LCA done should be driven for at least 15 miles or left in facility overnight , in order for the new bushings to settle, before the alignment. Otherwise , you risk a improper camber set up as the bushings will set in slightly as you begin to drive and your alignment will be off balance, so to speak.
I would not worry much ,if I had old , worn tires, but if those where new, i would make sure they followed this procedure.
