Reference

When lifting your Jeep, or even when you add a new set of headlights, making sure they are adjusted correctly is definitely important. So here is a simple guide you can follow in order to make sure you get everything aimed correctly.

To do this, you can use the lights' horizontal and vertical adjusting screws (located on the headlights bucket) to make the needed adjustments.

Steps
  1. Step 1 - On level ground, put your Jeep vehicle in front of a wall as close as possible.
  2. Step 2 - With tape, put 2 crosses on the wall that correspond with the vertical and horizontal center lines of both headlights.
  3. Step 3 - Move the Jeep back 25 ft., keeping the Jeep centered with the tape crosses on the wall.
  4. Step 4 - Examine the light pattern.
