Even if adjusted properly, if you have heavy loads / loads in the back of the vehicle or when you are towing, etc., your headlight beams end up projecting higher..

It's easy to adjust your JL/JLU/JT headlights..
Re-aiming your JL's headlights is easy easy to do yourself. It takes but a few minutes to do and there are no special tools involved..

Hint.... with 2 small colored Sharpie marks/dots, mark on each adjuster. Mark your stock adjustment / factory adjustment. This way you have lets say a starting point to use, if / and when you need it..

Example, you go back to stock tires, you get the adjustments way out of wack, you adjust only when you are towing that frigging trailer.....
........with any of the aforementioned, you can then get back to the stock adjustment quickly thanks to your Sharpie marks.

Yeah super easy to adjust. I just moved them down a few cranks, made sure they were even left to right and went about my business.

Maybe took 10 minutes tops.

Mine were too high, then I installed a winch. Now slightly low, and I'm going to add some shims to the front springs.
There's an easier way to adjust the lights.
