An off-set adjusting nut (122) for use with a bolt (110) permits adjustment of at least one characteristic of mechanically connected members (118, 120). The bolt (110) has a head (112) and a shank (114) extending therefrom, with at least a portion (116) of the shank (114) being threaded for engagement with the adjusting nut (122). The adjusting nut (122) includes a body (126) defining a nut axis (128) therethrough. A round flange (130) is formed integral with a lower portion of the body. The flange (130) is formed on the body (126) collinear with the nut axis (128). An eccentric bore (136) is formed in the body (126) extending through it and the flange (130). The bore (136) has a thread (140) formed therein for engaging the bolt shank thread (116). The bore (136) is formed off-set in the nut body (126) and defines a bore axis (138) that is parallel to and spaced from the nut axis (128).
