That would mean setting it up before the wheel arches go on. Thats probably why westfield keep the adjusters outboard. I could live with rosejoints outboard if I knew that they were massively oversized and could never fail. No one seems to be able to advise on sizing of the rose joints. All you can get from the suppliers is " 5/8 should do the job" Kin great. Just thoughts

Have you had a look at this site http://www.mcgillmotorsports.co.uk/.
Would it be possible to use a larger sized rose joint and fit a machined bush to bring down the size of the hole for the bolt?
