You're correct, assuming the geometry of the disc spindle is exactly the same as that of the drum spindle it's replacing, and also that the face of the hub where the wheel mounts is held in the exact same place. Otherwise, your alignment will change. So the real answer is, most likely your alignment will still be in spec, but it may not be spot on where you'd want it to be.?
