Default Possible inner tie rod problem?

I just DIY overhauled my front suspension a few months ago. I might of damaged the inner tie rod on the passenger side when I installed the new outer tie rods. In the photos posted below, one of the inner tie rod boots look out of alignment / slightly crooked. Also, when I'm making a sharp left turn at a slow speed, I can hear clicking sounds (*tick* *tick* *tick*) coming from the passenger side, so maybe those sounds have something to do with the out of aligned inner tie rods? This sound started happening two weeks after I over hauled my front suspension though, so maybe it's likely not coming from the inner tie rod, and I already checked if everything is tightened in the front suspension.
Does anyone know if this is something I should be concerned about? If so, how soon should it be fixed?
