Porpoising Bluebirds
Hi David:

It appears that my suggestion is worthless. I tried. I hope you guys
get that problem totally solved. Ther is a fellow who hnags ou on
RV.net and is also the President of the Yahoo Cat forum. Handle is
Wolfe 10 or wolf 10. He is very knowledgeble and owns a Foretravel. I
do remeber that he worked with Roadmaster sway bars. BTW: Do you use
the urethane bushings? The 99 LXI that I drove was probably the best
handling large vehicle I have ever driven.

My new Monaco: We are loving it but there is a huge larning curve.
Lts of electroncs that are new to me. Today I was telling my wife I
will have to install the Pressure pro system when I discoverd the
Alladin computer has a basic TP feature. All the wiring, both coach
and chassis are multiplexed. Everything is interconnected. You cannot
open the drivers door until the engine is off or the park brake is
applied. This is a 4 slide unit. The drivers chair automatically
moves forward when you bring in that slide. This is no BB but the
build quaity seems excellent.Lots of hardwoods, excellent drawer
construction, hige Jenn Air residential fridge, 37 inch LCD and
another 27 inch in the bedroom ( Sharp Aquos), energy management
system, 2800 Magnum tru sine, electric hose And power reels, lots of
leather, one piece windshield, semi monocoque, 10 air bags and 8
shocks. Where it is lacking as compared to a Bird is the 12 volt
system. only 6 6volt wet batteries for the coach. The BB's I looked
at had 4 or more 4D glass mats. BB also uses a huge alternator. I
think mine is 200 amps. But I do notice a lot of small things that
are not up to snuff. I guess I shouldnt compare it to my Bird. If it
had Sporlan valves I would feelat home!!! I am confident we will get
lots of enjoyment from this baby. We are currently at the J in Beloit
on our way to Canada.
