Headlight adjustment

[Man-of-methods]

I've searched and there are no instructions in the owner's manual for headlight adjustment. I think the JK's adjustments are different than the JL's. Does anyone know how to lower or raise the beam pattern?

Thanks. Now he never said which way to turn the adjustment screw for aiming up or or which way to aim down. No one ever said in the thread either. Do you know?

No, I don't know. It's one way or the other.. ho, ho,ho

The way I have aimed in the past: Wall with flat surface for the Wrangler to sit on. Take say white out and put two little white dots .. one do on the inner that turns and a matching/side by side dot on the outer. Then you can turn/try both ways and easily get back to exactly where it was before you frigged with it.

Once you figure out which way, let us know .. let me know, ok.

My GUESS is clockwise is UP.

Perhaps I'll try before work. It's still light here

You might want to mark with white out before it gets dark.

Are you wanting to do this because you got a lift installed or, like me, are you getting tired of getting bright-flashed because oncoming traffic thinks you have your brights on? I swear there hasn’t been a night drive yet when I haven’t been bright-flashed. I’m not sure if the LEDs are a blessing or a curse.

The answer is to flash them back and show them what your high beams really look like.

This is really fun in vehicles with HIDs.

Haven't seen these in years! I wished I would have kept some from my childhood.

Same here... every single time I drive it at night

I had LED's in my JK and adjusted them properly. The only time I got flashed, was from really old people. Here is the proper way to align your headlights: http://www.jwspeaker.com/blog/how-to-aim-headlights-driving-beam-or-high-beam-headlights/
