New wheel bearings - wheel alignment

[Griffic]

I've just had the nearside wheel bearings replaced. Is it wise to have wheel alignment checked ?
Thanks.

I don't see how it would affect the alignment, it should be fine without.

Nope

hub on or off car to replace the bearing?

[Griffic]

I had assumed it was hub off, hence the question but I got the invoice today and labour was two hours, so perhaps it wasn't.

Front and Rear?

Removing & refitting a front upright to replace the bearing does disturb the wheel alignment.

Removing & refitting a rear bearing carrier to replace the bearing does not disturb the wheel alignment.
