We would get flashed quite often in a stock Sahara. May need to adjust the headlights, but majority of the flashing came from sedans.

Occasionally since I put in the lift and added 37's. Going to re-aim them once the weather gets warmer.

When I raised mine the first thing I did was adjust the headlights. I don't think I have ever been flashed. Best to turn the drivers headlight a little lower than the passenger. With high beams on I can still see forever If you are getting flashed regularly then your lights are too high. The LEDs suck when they are in your eyes. I know it sounds funny but they really are a safety hazard for other drivers.

Which video/procedure did you use? I just got my jeep lifted and I want to ensure proper headlight angles.
This is the video I used. There are others that are similar. It took my wife and I about 20 minutes with the measuring, etc, it was a simple process.

Not funny at all; it is indeed an issue of safety. And simple courtesy. The obstinacy of the owners who concede being recurringly flashed, but refuse to adjust their headlights, does nothing for the reputation of the larger owner community, either.

Was driving on local neighborhood street with 4 speed bumps in row. Dude in front of me (in an Aston Martin no less) stops at the next stop sign, gets out and proceeds to ask me if "I had a problem" because I was "flashing my brights on and off at him".

God help our country.

I find I get flashed mostly when I have my fog lights on. Aim is probably off. I’ll take a look….. one day…..
I was going to say the same thing. The solution may be as simple as shutting off the fog light in regular driving in town.

I have a 2 door. For headlights I have the old fashioned "candle lights".

I drive in the daylight with my lights on as I think my Jeep looks cool.

I am flashed often.

See attached an extract from the manual. I have the switch set to 0 and still get flashed.

In the video he says counter clockwise to move the lights down but the video has pop up bubbles that reads clockwise to move the lights down.
