    Quality work, done by a master. A master of what, I just don't know. Needless to say, I passed on the job. Room addition (Dana Point) Yeah there is a large room above this mess.

    I have seen some shit in my years but this takes the cake. Everything was done wrong, I do mean everything. From the shitty block foundation to the 3/8" roofing ply.

    Where is this? Don’t tell me it’s some poor old lady in OC who paid full price for that shitty work. We should get Adam Corolla (To Catch a Contractor) on that case.

    In Dana Point. I haven't met the lady yet, but a contractor friend asked me to come look at it. I do believe she paid good money though. It all has to come out, everything. I am not touching any part of it. Obviously there were no permits or plans of any kind on this one.

    Loved that show. Wish it would have caught on more and continued showcasing asshat shady "contractors"

    I know. It was amazing how many douche bag contractors they found in the LA area. I loved watching them squirm and try to lie their way out if it when they got caught.

    My standard dakars aka 95R were 2 3/4" installed then settled to 2.5" :thumbsup: I need to revalve the rear Kings though...too soft IMO. Glad I still have my rear Foxes which actually rides better and will be installed til I get a chance to revalve the Kings.

    @Mach375 got those I believe. He carries a lot of weight at all times, including a dual swing HC rear bumper.

    I have Shane's number if you want to call him and get more info. I know he has been through numerous rear set-ups.
