Has anyone done a headlight adjustment after a lift? What technique did you use for adjusting them?
It seems the conventional method is to mark your bulb height on a wall and backup 25’ and adjust the cutoff so it’s a couple inches below that mark... so effectively they are pointed down at a slight angle.
The thing I don’t understand is that a high riding truck with bulbs 36” off the ground is still going to be blinding oncoming traffic using this method. The difference in bulb height between a lifted Bronco and a Lambo is a little different, but this accepted method doesn’t account for that at all.
Does anyone else find that strange? It basically means that properly adjusted, a lifted Bronco driver can probably see 100’ down the road and will be blinding anyone within 50’ while the Lambo can only see 10’ down the road and will only blind squirrels.
