I have that you can the Altrom adjusting screws at NAPA. They are the same ones the dealers sells, but a lot cheaper.

Have you tried using PB Blaster or Mystery Oil first? Let the bolts soak over night.

if you get new screws, also get new nuts. dealer is where I got mine, they are not that expensive. I am somewhat not convinced as of yet that the Altroms from NAPA are really OEM. LCE is more expensive than I paid at my dealer. BTW replace them all, not just one set.
