simple and accurate way of adjusting headlights was originally devised
by Marshall Lewis of Empire, California. This is strictly a mechanical
adjustment (no aiming the lights at the wall) and is not the procedure
used by Ford.

- Loosen the nuts holding the
headlights to the light bar.
- Lay the 2 x 4 across the faces of
both headlights and adjust them so that they lay flat against the 2
x 4. This makes sure that both headlights will be pointed straight
ahead and parallel with each other.
- Place the carpenter's level
vertically against the face of each headlight and adjust them so
they are tipped forward (down toward pavement) 1/2 bubble on the level. Tighten the nuts.
- Check the both lights again with
the level and 2 x 4 to make sure the headlights haven't moved out of
position. If they have, loosen the nuts and repeat this procedure.
