Hi im building a 4x4 mk1 escort using luego rear suspention! this is a picture of a luego with an arrow on the measurment im after - the gap between
the 2 25mm box sections

Im still having problems with this  basically when i set the bottom measurement to 400/450 the top seems too narrow and i cant get my diff in - its
as if the bottom wishbones need to be longer??? so would anyone be able to measure there wishbones for me please?
my bottom wishbones are 385mm between the bolt centres of the straitest side (the one furtherst to the front)!!
and also my top wishbones are 265 between the start of the thread and the centre are these correct?
also the same measurement i asked for before but between the top wishbones on mine is 740mm/790mm (inside and outside) is this correct?
Hopefully its something simple im doing wrong and ive got the correct wishbones - thanks in advance

The original measurement you asked for is larger on the viento which uses a standard siera rear end. (550mm from memery but will have to check for
deff if you want me too) - can measure wishbones on monday if you want -

ah that would explain a lot - would be great if you could measure it for me cheers
p.s. 550mm inside to inside (not outside to outside) thats what you mean yeah?

inside to inside as marked on following pic is 550mm -external - 600mm
the viento may have different wishbones to the ones you have so this may not be of help -!!!!!!!!
its hard to measure the wishbones with them in place but the lower wishbone fron the center line of the rear two bolts to the center line of the front
two bolts is 385mm approx ( hard to measure)
you could do with posting a pic of your wishbones so that velocity xt owners could compare them.
