An external fixation system for adjusting a load occurring at a joint connecting a first bone to a second bone. The external fixation system includes a first bone clamp to connect to the first bone, a second bone clamp to connect to the second bone, and a pivot assembly to operatively connect the first bone clamp and to the second bone clamp. The pivot assembly includes a first pivot body pivotably coupled to a second pivot body at a pivot axis, wherein one of the first pivot body and the second pivot body includes an adjustment mechanism configured to adjust the position of one of the first pivot body and the second pivot body with respect to the other of the first pivot body and the second pivot body at other than the pivot axis.
