Hayduke, You could just directly thread without separate adjusters. No need for easier adjustment.
That was my original plan, the fabricator steered me towards these. Considering how often these need adjusting it doesn't make a lot of sense. I'll probably do it the most complicated way...

I think he is referring to a UBJ adjuster.
I was actually referring to the upper inner, but the UBJ looks similar.

Here is a more common way to do it. Also called a sleeve nut.
Below is a pic of how I see the internals of the adjusters in the pic, and I think it matches your sketch, with the red box on yours being the green on mine, and holes thru the tube instead of hex. I just have no idea how thin the tube walls can be, from what I've seen online, thinner than I thought.

The least amount of work would be to straighten the frame with a body jack, heat, cut and weld, etc.
I'm sure you're right, I'd thought getting new arms built would be quicker and the adjustability would be a benefit both before and after the frame is sorted.
I'd like to learn more about 'traditional design techniques' but there are some many rabbit holes on the internet, I pester you guys. And I appreciate the feedback.
