You are correct, the threaded bushings actually move the suspension arms as they turn.

The bushes are threaded, that are installed (screwed) onto the fulcrum pins, then pressed as a unit through the control arms on an interferance fit. Both bushes are pressed into the arms at the same time. You need a big press and some fixturing to keep from bending up the control arms.
This help?
