this is how easy it is to do,...
before you level lift, or 6'' lift...
pull up to a block wall about a 100' back
note what grout line your headlights shine at the center of the beam.....
now, either paint a dot on the concrete.... or take a measurement from the wall back to the center of the tire for later reference
now get the cool guy lift kit of your choice,... park in the same spot,... now notice that your headlight are way way too high
open the hood.... right behind the light, there is an adjustment to lower the lights down to the OG spot:wink_002:
Good info Steve. I lowered mine so I should be ok right? :D
100' back, is that a typo because that's not right.
But definitely a good idea to adjust your headlights.
My Silverado has an 8" lift and i had to adjust my headlights, otherwise they would blind people in front of me just did out of courtousy for others
Actually never really thought about it,,,,,,,,,but then again I don't lift my truck. Makes it a PITA to get in and out and access to the bed of the truck. I rather spend the $$ of boat gas and booze,lol
All lights are adjustable. Us should be able to do up down left and right with adjustment screws around the housing which are prob covered by decorative trim of some sort.
50' Back is a good start, I also line up next to my work truck at night and compare heights on the garage door. For the final test I drive to town and see if i'm not blinding the lowest cars around.
Gosh my mind is not right today, when I opened the thread I thought you were talking about these kind of headlights.Attachment 17948
I turned them down on my lifted trucks and if I got behind a car at night at a stop light I'd turn them off... If I was feeling like a nice guy that day.
What irritates me is when people don't turn their head lights off on the launch ramp and I can't see for shit when trying to back my trailer down the ramp at night.
