Oculus alignment for steps

[amoebadrop]

Hi guys - question on aligning my new oculus bi led, as I’ve seen mixed messages. I have them aligned as you can see in the picture, three steps going up toward the passenger side. Is this correct, or should there be one step in the middle and lower on the passenger side like it is on the driver side? Thanks

You want the left side high point to match the right side high point. looks like your right side needs to come down about 2 inches (or the left up 2, lol). I have 295/70s and Rubicon suspension on my Sport 2dr and I have the beams adjusted so they only throw out about 45 feet (cutoff line angled down so it's about 45 out from the front of the Jeep. If I go up any higher I'll be getting flashed all the time. Also the high beams are so good that it's not a big deal having to adjust them that low.

Perfect, thanks - exactly what I was looking for. One more question: should the middle be the 37 inches (for me) measured to the middle of the headlamp, or the driver/passenger side

I ended up just going behind my house (there's a dark alley behind the house) and adjusted the light throw so the cutoff was about 45-50 feet away from the front of the Jeep. I then adjusted the left to right balance against the back wall of my garage so they were equal height.
IMO it's hard to go just by a strict height as your Jeep may have a rake, sits level, etc.
All I know is I was getting flashed all the time prior to adjusting that cutoff down quite a bit.

It might take 4-5x of adjustment but it's time well spent.
