i installed a new tie rod on a car that i got that was in a wreck, it also needed a lower control arm which i also replaced. there is alot of negative camber and caster, and i just wanted to make sure that that is normal and can be fixed when i get it aligned and adjusted.

Yes and no.

If the tie rod is adjusted considerably further in/out than the previous one, than yes it's normal. If it's close to the original setting and there's still a lot of change, you may have damaged more than you know. Get it aligned first.
