Default Bad front caster

Hi all,

This is a spin off thread from my previous thread[https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum...rear-toe.html] about bad rear toe (similar to how "Better Call Saul" is a spin off from "Breaking Bad").

It seem like the previous owner of my car(purchased recently) hit a pothole with both fron left and rear left wheels. First and most obvious effect was the bent rear toe link that is now fixed.

However, there is a further problem - bad front left caster (as seen in the picture).

The guy that worked on my car said that the control arms didn't look visibly damaged. Therefore, the reason for the bad caster could be literally anything...

Can you guys help me narrow down to some plausible possibilities so that I don't end up fixing wrong things?

After many long months this issue finally got resolved. Turns out it was a bad control arm. $1000 later the car goes straight and looks perfect.
