Finally bought a Bluebird!! - mbulriss - 05-09-2011 09:53 On the forum homepage, there is a link to "Database" on the left side. When you go there, you will find a Database named 'Member to Member' that can be sorted by the state column. There are only about 130 members that have listed their contact information however.

With that being said, the fronts are Koni(and they are adjustable), but the bushings wear out, and the rears are Gabriel(I think). I replaced mine with Monroe(or NAPA).

I would recommend coming out to the Quartzsite Rally in January, its a good opportunity to meet Blue Birders from the west as well as from around the nation. You can email me direct robertbritton@...
