Blade cutting at an angle

Hey Guys (and Gals),
So I just got back from deployment, bought my first house and my grandpa gave me his old riding Snapper mower (Model SR1433) - Everything in my life was going smoothly...until I nicked the back concrete porch and now my lovely old mower is cutting at an angle. I figured that I had bent the blade so I ordered a new one. I popped the old one off and put the new one on and now the blade is hitting the deck on the front and rear. Now this only happens with one end of the blade (one rotates smoothly) and the blade lined up perfectly with the previous one ( I laid the new one on top to see if they were the same, the previous one did not appear to be bent at all). I am at a complete loss as of where to start. I would rather try and fix it myself so I can learn about it so I would prefer to try and do it myself
As far as how it was cutting after I hit the back porch: One side, lets say the left, would almost cut into the dirt and the right side would leave the grass too high. I should be here all day to quickly answer any questions or provide pictures as needed. Thanks!
