I dropped the rear cradle and I noticed there are dowels where it attaches to the body, but I didn't pay attention to how tight they are. Are they tight enough to maintain alignment? Thanks

At least have it checked. That should be free at any reputable tire dealer your GM dealership. At my dealership they throw the paddles on and check alignment before the car goes in for service , even an oil change.

You have a great dealer! Not many like that around.

They have the portable Hunter alignment reader under the roof by check-in. Spring loaded rubber pads attach the paddles to the rims and a laser readout. I know they are looking for a service sale while you are there. But it’s nice when they tell you they are not recommending an alignment at the time.

Are they tight when you replace it?
Either way, alignments are relatively cheap.
