Does this tie rod end look right to you?

I recently changed this a few months ago, but it just doesn't look right compared to the driver's side. I have a clunk noise over small bumps AND when i shut my engine off (some times) do you guys think this is the cause of the clunk or is it strut mounts?

I hope you're typing that from a phone. You have no idea how hard that is to read.

jack the side where the tie rod end is and see if there is side to side play. I think my drivers side is going out because I keep on hearing a annoying clunk whenever there is a pothole, train track, or change in the grade of the road. other signs are when it has a crack or lost grease.
