No, I checked the microfilm and couldn't find anything here at all. 
Besides, if you think about it you realize that with either the swing 
axle or IRS all you can do is introduce twist into the spring plate; 
you can't alter the camber angle.

And if you only insert 1, around only 1 bolt, then you force the 
spring plate into a state of permanent stress, what we call 
assembling it with a "curse" on it. That can't be good for a rather 
hi-stress suspension part.
