Spring plate height adjust via eccentric w/o removing other bolts, nuts?
 
Just installed brand new neatrix and stiffer t-bars.
want to fine tune ride height by turning eccentric on the spring plate. Do I need to remove spring plate-to-lower control arm bolts/nuts and camber/toe bolts/nuts as well as shock bolts? or can i just do it without taking these five bolts/nuts out?

did unsuccessful search... :-(


ps...do not consider rear spring plate bushing replacement job a half day work...I soon realized I opened a can of worms!!! but now I'm happy with everything got back together with more new parts. ;-)

You do not need to loosen the bolts that secure the spring plate to the trailing arm, or the shock bolts, or the toe/camber bolts.

You need only loosen the qty 2 22mm bolts that secure the two halves of the spring plate together, just aft of the torsion bar. The one closest to the tursion bar is a clamping bolt, the one further from the torsion bar serves as a clamp and eccentric.
