Adjusting Headlight Height

[92GreenGT]

I need to raise my headlights up tomorrow(night I guess...hehe) because I have a potential buyer coming to look at the truck Wed. When I swapped back to the factory bulbs the adjustment got messed up. What's the best thing to use to get to the adjuster? It looks pretty tight/hard to get to, would I be better off removing the light and making a large adjustment that way then fine tuning it with a socket/ratchet if I can get it on there? Do they make a tool for the job?

Thanks!!

There is a special tool for the job, it is made by Lisle and it works like a charm.

If you can't find the tool then you would need to remove the headlight, adjust tabs, and put the headlight back in. Time consuming, but it could be done.

I've adjusted them before with a rachet/socket. I'll go see if I can find that tool at Advance(doubtful) but if I can't I'll just have to do it the old school way today.

Turning the bolt to the right(tightening) will raise the headlights correct?
