Wanted : Old Luego Mushroom Inserts

All,

Does anyone have a set of the old style Luego mushroom inserts for the sierra upright?

I have the newer ones and they just done give as much camber adjustment as the old better ones ( the old ones barely give 0deg camber! )

does anyone have a set of the old ones they can sell me?

here are the old ones - the are quire wide, and flat on the top. the hole for the transit drag link ball joint is quite far over to the edge...

and the new one has the hole closer to the center, with a raised section where the ball joint goes through.... this gives a small amount of camber adjustment.

thanks for the offer, but i dont want to buy the whole lot, just for the mushrooms... unless you are willing to swap?

Isn't there an argument about these off centre holed mushroom jobbies not actually making any difference?
Sure I read that somewhere.
Cheers.

What they do is allow the relationship between camber and king pin inclination to be altered.
What they don't do is alter the caster, which what most builders want them for.

my issue is with camber. I cant seem to get any negative camber with the new luego adjusters.

hi mate, if you give me the exact dimensions I can send you a pair through post.
Solid Aluminium that is.
