2014 GTX 260 iS Limited - Do I need to re-align drive shaft?

[swilliams1284]

Hey guys! I recently had to pull the engine out to check out some low oil pressure issues (Seen here). I'm wondering since I didn't have to remove the motor mounts and it's already been aligned previously, when I put the engine back in, do I need to bother re-aligning the driveshaft since nothing on the mount side will have moved?

It would be wise to verify alignment. Why take the chance of destroying components.

I pulled my engine last fall for a rebuild, and when I put it back in (same mounts); it aligned perfectly. Sure it cost me over $350.00 for the alignment tools, but I have peace of mind that the engine was installed/aligned properly.
