Default Front height adjustment

I've searched the adjustment threads and understand the adjustment process. Can the adjustment bolt be reached fairly easy by simply jacking the car up using a puck and removing the wheel? I read that different suspensions do make a difference in how easy it is. I don't know the number of what I have, but it is an 03 model with the tour/sport switch on the console. I appreciate any input anyone may have.

All C5 suspensions are the same when it comes to the height adjustment bolt at the end of the spring. The tour/sport switch just controls the valving on the shock. Yes, jacking the car up and removing a wheel will give you access to the adjustment bolt.
