Weld-in adjusters ?

Correct me if I'm wrong:

1) Unbolt 3 spring plate bolts
2) Unbolt 4 torsion bolt plate bolts and remove plate
3) Use jack to lift spring plate up
4) Use pry bar, screwdriver, etc. to pull spring plate back towards you
5) Rotate spring plate upwards 2 splines
6) Reinstall opposite of above instructions

Thats about it. make sure to mark the springplates and torsion with a paint marker before you start adjusting them. Just in case they slip of you wont loss your starting point.
