I'm going to do a Tip Transmission service and in this video, around the 1:29 mark he just removes the four end nuts on the braces, then buttons them back up.
If I do it the way he is in the video, do I need to get it aligned after?

The two flat aluminum braces? The service manual says that you can completely remove those without need for an alignment provided you do not put weight on the wheels when you remove them. So it's fine as long as you have the car on the jack points.
I've removed them a few times using the manual procedures and did not have any alignment issues.
