well, everything is off the trailing arms now. the top moves freely and i can raise and lower it with the adjusting bolt in and without having backed it out at all. however, the lower trailing arms don't budge at all. i have tried jacking them up...it takes the weight of the car without moving. guess that answers for that harsh ride i used to have. they did move several months ago though when i first released the locking nuts. but not back to stock height. i need another 1/2" at least.

any ideas? i am down to the above suggestion of just backing off the adjusting bolt, but it is still under some kind of load. when trying to push it up i can move it about 1/2", but it doesn't move the trailing arms. so i am a little weary of backing it off. what are the internals. how does that adjusting bolt lock into the leaves?
