The way I did it was when I first bought my Jeep I had marked in my garage where the headlights where aimed at and had marked it so I knew how far into the garage to go, and have also used that mark to adjust my headlights after I made any changes that would affect the height of the vehicle (lift, steel bumpers, winch, etc). After I installed the Truck-lites the quality of the light was MUCH better than the stock headlights that the aim didn't quite work. When I road tested they were aiming too low, so I started adjusting from there until cars started flashing their high beams at me. Then a 1/4 turn the other way and was perfect. Amazing the $h!t you do when your bored. If you don't adjust them, you will hate the Truck-lites and even more the $$ you spent.

Confusing but hope it helps.
Thanks for the help.

For specifics most states have the measurements on their official registry of vehicles website

At least in Maine and Massachusetts that was true

Default Flickering started on my '12 JK WITH the anti-flicker harness

All,

Happy Holidays!

I installed a set of truck lites in my '12 JK after winning them at last years T4T event at Rausch Creek. I ordered the anti-flicker devices and put them on at the same time. Been running them for probably six months and noticed the other day the drivers side light started flickering sometimes.

Anyone have an idea what is causing this? I was thinking that side anti-flicker module probably is failing.

Thanks for the help!!

Swap it with the other sides anti-flicker harness and see if flickering changes lights to.

Great thought to see if it's that exact module. Thanks!
