It's pretty badly screwed now, the passenger side trunnion bushing was
mostly non existent and what was there didn't look at all correct.
I put in the correct pair of bushings and put things back together, did the
same on the drivers side but over there what I took out resembled what I was
putting back in, with a bit of wear, but they were correct.
Things didn't look right so I decided to just skip the inner A frame
bushings for now and put it all back together.
Sure enough, the passenger side tire is cocked out at the top by several
inches.
Something is very seriously wrong here.
I need help diagnosing this situation, it's beyond me what's going on here.

Here are a few pictures I took and uploaded to picasa:
