Thanks!  That’s what I discovered once I got into it. The adjustment really is that simple but I’m surprised it can stay in adjustment with that vertical load. 

There’s a nut on the backside that must be held. That threw me off. 

Now for the next chore.

The mounting on the chassis is slotted and large screwdriver or lever is simply used to move the arm as needed after the bolt and nut is loosened. The outer is slotted up-down to adjust the camber. The inner is slotted front-rear to adjust toe. Camber should be 0-1 degree negative. In at the top.

Trying to loosen the outer pivot bolt is a chore but more important is, what the heck actually gets adjusted?  The Bentley says to insert a screwdriver into the slot and adjust, but for someone expecting a starwheel-type adjustment device I'm mystified seeing open air on the other side of the slot.  Do I just pry on the trailing arm itself to move it up or down?
