Adjusting wastegate rod. Help Please!

Can the wastegate be adjusted from the underneath of car or do you have to remove a bunch of stuff to adjust the rod? Thank you.

Pull off the cover that keeps the bolts from backing off then I use a deep 10mm socket to loosen the back nut then u can adjust the front nut by hand to where u want
