I think in MD the law is the center of your headlights have to be within 24 to 55 inches off the ground, havent measured mine but im sure its ok.

Ive never had problems with being too low here, and my sonoma is slammed.

alignment should always be done when you change suspension parts, but you shouldn't have any problems

CA, CT, ME, MT, OK - Height of headlamps must be at least 22 inches from the ground

Here you go:

24008. It is unlawful to operate any passenger vehicle, or commercial vehicle under 6,000 pounds, which has been modified from the original design so that any portion of the vehicle, other than the wheels, has less clearance from the surface of a level roadway than the clearance between the roadway and the lowermost portion of any rim of any wheel in contact with the roadway.

http://www.dmv.ca.gov/pubs/vctop/d12/vc24008.htm

Also:

24400. (a) A motor vehicle, other than a motorcycle, shall be:
(1) Equipped with at least two headlamps, with at least one on each side of the front of the vehicle, and, except as to vehicles registered prior to January 1, 1930, they shall be located directly above or in advance of the front axle of the vehicle. The headlamps and every light source in any headlamp unit shall be located at a height of not more than 54 inches nor less than 22 inches.
