I measured my frame at the slot in the front and rear. the rear is close but the front is 2" low. It is still at the factory setting as far as I know. I found an old 1930's Axel tool that should suffice to unload the adjuster. It has a 1" shaft so it should be plenty strong enough. It looks like some adjust the screw with the front wheels on the ground and some with the wheels suspended. I also read 1 turn is approximately 1"??. So if the rear is set correctly and I tighten the 2 screws 12 turns each I should be in the ball park? Jacking with the wheels off the ground will be easier on the screws??
