Link bar assemblies are provided to connect adjacent structural components (e.g., components of an aircraft such as connecting an underwing engine to the wing structure) having respective connection lugs. The link bar assemblies will include a link bar having opposed terminal ends which include circular bearings, bushings operatively received by the circular bearings of the link bar, and a bolt and pin assembly inserted through the bushings to connect the terminal ends of the link bar to the respective connection lugs of the adjacent structural components. At least one of the bushings includes a multi-faceted flange and defines an eccentric aperture (e.g., an elliptical aperture having major and minor axes) such that rotation of the bushing allows the eccentric aperture to become aligned with the mounting opening of a respective connection lug.
