Well normally it is 10 feet away and it should be 2 feet high at that distance... but for lifted vehicles... who knows. I sure dont... I just guestimated where I felt it was good.

The link is for e-code headlamps but touches on US DOT headlamps as well.

shouldnt it be the 2 ft plus the lift height.
like on a 3.5'' with 33's it would be 2'+3.5''+1.5''?
thanks for the help.
ill mess with it tomorrow night.

I follow people about 20 feet away, and if I get a lot of 1 finger waves. I will then adjust them down, and try again.:)
