I think they guy who did your alignment is pointing out the obvious. Yes the angles of the Tie rods are not parallel with the ground as they were stock, they are at an angle because of the lift. Maybe he doesn't know that it happens when you lift the X. And because of these more extreme angles these steering components are prone to break, OE parts that is. Long tie rods I don't think will bring them to a more stock look. All you can do is beef up the steering with Calmini or LP because those built up parts can withstand the angles.
