Adjustable mounting assembly

A method of adjusting an adjustable mounting assembly, the adjustable mounting assembly comprising:

• a housing comprising a front collar and a rear collar joined by a threaded engagement, the front collar comprising an opening about a roll axis of the adjustable mounting assembly, the rear collar comprising teeth oriented toward the front collar;
• a front body part positioned within the housing and extending outwardly through the opening;
• an intermediate body part positioned within the housing and rotatably coupled, about the roll axis of the adjustable mounting assembly, to the front body part;
• and
• a rear body part positioned within the housing and rotatably coupled, about a yaw axis of the adjustable mounting assembly, to the intermediate body part, the rear body part comprising teeth oriented toward the rear collar;
• the method comprising:
• loosening the threaded engagement between the front collar and the rear collar from a first position to a second position, thereby causing the front collar to translate away from the rear collar, which causes a gap to form that (i) enables disengagement of the teeth of the rear body part from the teeth of the rear collar and (ii) allows the front body part to rotate about a pitch axis of the adjustable mounting assembly;
• after loosening the threaded engagement to the second position, rotating at least the front body part about the pitch axis of the adjustable mounting assembly;
• and
• after rotating at least the front body part about the pitch axis, tightening the threaded engagement between the front collar and the rear collar from the second position to the first position, thereby positioning the teeth of the rear body part in an interlocking engagement with the teeth of the rear collar and preventing the front body part from rotating about the pitch axis.
