Luego IRS Uprights

Anyone else building an IRS-equipped Luego chassis?

I'm honestly not intending to air dirty laundry in public, but I think maybe there's something wrong with the spacing of the mountings on my uprights (either that or the lower arms).

The bushes on my lower arms don't seem to line up with the lower brackets on the fabricated rear upright.

Both left and right uprights and arms are dimensionally identical. It's not a one off, I just hope it's not a bad batch.

I do know how to cure it, but I'm reluctant to cut and weld brand new powder coated parts!

Anyone else seen this problem?

Have you tried swapping them left for right and flipping them over,just a thought as what looks identical sometimes isnt.

Tried every permutation Bob! Thanks though.

I know I should call and give the Luego guys a chance to do something about it, but I kinda wanna sort it myself. Besides, I've had to drill the uprights to suit the 1/2" bolts I'm using. Don't suppose they'll appreciate that too much!

Just wondered if anyone else has had any trouble in that department...

Sparky,

I'd definately give Luego a call.

I've bought quite a bit of stuff from them, and I'm sure they will sort you out.

You've obviously dealt with them, so know how helpful they are.

Sparky, just noticed you are just down the road. We are building a live axle Luego in Stowmarket. Just thought I'd say hello!
