Head Light Adjustment?

#1 Post by JD » Thu Apr 03, 2008 11:31 pm

Anyone have the adjustment height and "toe in" for defender headlights? Mr. Haynes stated this is a shop level thing. Love to explain where to shop for his manual ... My old CJ3A used a couple of cross hairs at a certain height and distance from the front of the truck. Had it scribed on the garage wall. Baffled my dad for years. Too stubborn to ask. But is there something similar for the Defender?

Cheers

Headlight aiming is not vehicle specific. I don't think you can aim DOT headlights without the proper equipment but if you have e-code lamps you can do it yourself. Look here for info on aiming e-code lamps

Red90, I changed the MOD lights to a clear-ish glass front and better rear reflector type - can't remember exactly which make - found at the local Lordco. Fit well but need some alignment. Much the stuff in your link.

John, thanks for that info... exactly the stuff I was looking for.

Cheers
