Hey,
I just bought my first truck, a 2000 Explorer V8 AWD.
When I went to adjust the headlights (they were blinding every person in front of me), I did not see any adjustment parts under those flaps on the radiator cover. I ended up having to take the whole grille off to get to the screws.
Do you think someone did a half-assed repair on the front end and didn't install the lights correctly? I did see metal sticks about 6" long with a little gear on them. They were connected but were underneath the lights, laying horizontal. Didn't look right to me.
I know the truck was in a front end collision before, but I honestly didn't care considering it only cost me $1000.
Also, does anybody know if I can purchased the adjusters by themselves or will I need to get new lamps?
Thanks,
Sean
