Well my "sensor arms" are fine and all else looks ok under my X, so you're probably right, for whatever reason, changing the tie rods had changed the ride height in the front to be higher. I'm going to call the dealership and actually ask them if part of the procedure of the alignment is to level out the car, if so, then I would think that leveling the front axle would be part of the procedure and thus they could do it at the same time.
Basically, I know I sound cheap but if part of the alignment procedure is to make sure the corners are already at the proper ride height I don't expect to be charged for an additional "ride height calibration" procedure in addition to the alignment.
