I need some assistance on how to align my headlights. I have 6K Xenon lights and have a combined 7 inches of lift. I have read in different websites you need to get close to a wall, mark, then go back 25 feet and then align. However, how do I adjust to the 7 inches of lift. Any suggestions would be great. Thank guys.

they should still be the same.....

You might want to point them down a bit tho so you see the road.

In the obs there was a screw above the headlights (when u open the hood) I thhink it was a hex nut but not to sure.

Yea theres a hex nut you can spin to raise/lower them, but be careful if they are rusty you don`t snap them! Put some PB blaster on if they are, I had to buy a whole new headlight mount for like 200 bucks or something crazy. but maybe aim them down a bit of just get some good fog lights haha.

I never did anything with my lights when I lifted the truck. They seem to work OK.

Pul up about 20 feet behind your wife`s mini-van and aim them right in the back window. I found that this makes them move over to the right for some reason...
