Alignment should not have anything to do with this but you do need to get it aligned asap since i'm sure your toe and camber are off.
Is it possible to reuse the stock bushings when you install the BC's?

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but i've never seen the tops of the stock units.

Metal on metal could be the culprit.

Cannot reuse the stock tops. Its very likely you will get vibration because of the metal tops. I do actually think BC sells rubber bushings that can be used with there top hats. I'm not 100% on this but I thought they did.
