    I tried that once. Releasing the adjuster 15 clicks was too much trouble. :rofl:
    Some may say I am impatient. I say it’s good enough:confused:

    I just resorted back to my old ways.
    I call it it - Drag and drive. :thumbsup:

    Many people do it the same as you.... even I do it that way. :rolleyes:

    I only wanted the OP to know the "official" take on the adjustment.

    :spending:The official words is good to know.

    I just can’t take the hassle backing the adjusters and off. My jack stand don’t go up high enough for me to sit under the rear axle. You have to push the little locking tab back and adjust at the same time.

    My abs hurt for days after all that. :rofl:
    I think I need to install a lift in my driveway.
