If you want to do it yourself without a headlight aligning machine, park on level ground facing a brick wall, garage door, etc (something with straight horizontal lines on it). You said you know what piece adjusts the headlight, so start to turn it. I don't know which way you have to do it in your specific case because you didn't say which way they were facing.

The was\y I did it was it should be 4' high at 6' away from the truck. You just have to play with it till you get it were you want it.
