Horrific pictures.

My 62K mile original (key word coming here) "non-wrecked" 951 that I bought last month.

The wavy rail is the drivers side.
The welded one is the passenger side.
Only welded on the bottom 1" - the rest of it is still intact.

Yes, that is the drivers side caster block.
And yes, the mount is bent upwards.

Sorry to hear about that. Glad to see you got another 951 though.

If he advertised or told you it wasn't wrecked, we would be in court.

I would have to agree with Razor...
If it was advertised as never being in a wreck, it is "false advertising" I would look into your options in a legal argument!!

Was he the original owner? If not, he may not have known. You can't prove malicious intent with that you've described here.
