need help on headlight

One of my headlights is not level with the body its like tucked in or pushed in. Is there a way you can adjust it to make it level with the body. thanks

If you check the headlight linkages, there are white round platic clips that attach everything to gether. Most of the time they get old and break causing your problem. Most likely the same headlight that goes down too far isnt going up as far as it should also.

If the plastic pivots are good, the is a bump stop that can be adjusted, under the unit.

if all else fails, you can unbolt the motor mount and use washers to space it out, lifting your headlight
