angles look ok. could use a slight tweaking but the tie rod angle is fine for sure
can't really say the rest of your setup is fine though..

will it? drop pitman looks like it would be detrimental. if you're talking about helping the tie rod angle (which isn't a problem) flip it OTK with a knuckle insert.

why? just go with a complete system from seriousoffroad if you want to upgrade. or just deal with the stock setup the way it is. the angles aren't effecting tire wear, the toe propably is
