It needs more thought which I havent had time for.
Something like this is needed:

But they are not cheap!

So in short no, at the moment there is no easy way to make it adjustable!

Could you not use a universal swivelling joint from a socket set?? You can buy them seperately (didnt look at tweeks' price however)

Have you got an updated picture of a finished item mate?

Pictures of the completed linkages - currently available as a modification to your existing linkage only as I have no standard linkages to modify.
