assuming the link you sent was to lower, assuming counterclockwise lowers the car, clockwise raises the car. Is it called the trim height adjuster bolt?

I am not sure what it is called but you are correct regarding turning the bolt clockwise. Just do the opposite of what the link says and you will be good.
