Default Lights!

I put a 2.5" RC lift on my jeep and now when I drive at night every one I pass flashes there lights at me as if I'm bright lighting them! Any one else have this problem? If so how can I fix it?

You need to adjust your headlight aim. Check the write up section for the procedure. Adjusting the aim will help, but you may want to leave the lights up a little for your own visibility.

buy more lights so you can flash them back properly with sufficient candlepower.









Seriously though. Adjust them, but there are still a-holes in the world no matter what. I have about 4" of lift on my JK, my lights are adjusted down about as far as they will go and i still get bright lighted. They are WELL below the cutoff where they should be when aimed properly.

USUALLY it is the same old guy every morning. HIS lights are pointed at the damn moon and he flashes me? jerk. some old 4door buick that looks like it has 500lbs of weight in the trunk. He gets to inspect my hi/low beam circuitry and KC lights (all 6 of them) for proper functioning rather often.
