Alright so the adjustment went better than what I thought. I was expecting a fight to break the nuts loose from all the rust but a couple days soak of PB Blaster helped a lot. I double checked the measurement again before I started and I was at 16" from rim to fender on the passenger side and about 15-3/4" on the drivers. After a few times of adjusting and then driving and measuring, I'm sitting at 14" as of now. Very noticeable difference in the ride so far. Still need to get it down a little farther but so far it's working out. Thanks again for all the input and advice.
