sway a way rear adjuster

Hi,

Please help me with this:

Some years ago I installed front suspension adjusters and I'm happy, I can adjust the height of the front suspension. But rear suspension was a pain, I want to drop the rear but if I move the spring plate torsion bar position to a lower height setting I have toe in and I really hate this, Then I prefer straight position.

Then I saw the spring plates with adjusters, I never saw 1 and I never bought it because I believe I will have the same toe in result, I'm correct ?

Now I saw this sway a way rear adjuster  that works like the front adjusters that i already installed. with this rear adjuster if a drop some inches the rear  I will have correct straight rear wheel or the toe in will persist ?

I supose this rear adjuster is great to preload the torsion bars


is a rear drop height without  toe in solution or not ?
The only solution is to cut  and weld the rear suspesion beam (what is the correct name , rear torsion housing) in a higher position to drop the rear ?

thanks in advance

Yes, you will still get toe in, depending how low you go. You can grind the slots in the spring plate to move the axel back and restore the toe to at least 0, or a bit of toe out.
