Default Does a new steering stabilizer require an alignment?

Hello. I’m still somewhat new to jeeps, so I’m still learning a bit about jeep suspensions. So far I’ve been pretty successful. I’ve cured the dreaded death wobble problem on my new 2000 Cherokee Sport by putting in a larger track bar bracket bolt and changing all 4 ball joints. I even replaced my U-joints while i had the axles out. So I know I need an alignment now with the new suspension parts, but I was wondering if a new steering stabilizer requires an alignment also? I was going to throw on a Rough Country steering stabilizer to clean up my bump-steer, but I planned on waiting until I had some extra cash to get one. If someone could tell me if a steering stabilizer affects the alignment I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

No, that will not affect it
