Default Installing heads

There's a number of you guys that have retroed the HD/Raptor style buckets on your trucks. What did you do to realign them? I've replaced the buckets on a couple Rangers, but never looked close on '09+ 150.
Any info welcomed.

Heads ????? Buckets ????? "retroed" ?????

Are you referring to the headlights?

If so ... The only alignment that can be made/adjusted on the 2009+ F-150s is the vertical. Excerpted from the 2012 F-150 owner's manual .....
(owner's manual) Don't have one ?

Thanks Joe, yes the headlights. On the Rangers, it says the same thing about no horizontal alignment, but there is. It just can't be accessed with the headlight "buckets" installed on the truck. What I did with those was to measure the adjustable mounts on the stock ones, and set the aftermarket ones the same, got you in the ballpark at least so you didn't blind oncoming drivers.
I'm wondering if the 150's aren't similar.
I guess I could have been clearer, that's what using olde school slang get's you.LOL
