Are the headlights adjustable?
Guys,
just upgraded my ‘06 headlights to a new fancy pair I got off Amazon and noticed they’re not aimed correctly. Is there any way to adjust the headlights? I’ve looked around on the car and I can’t see a way. Thanks fir any help you can offer.

Oem headlights have a height adjustment screw it's right in front of the hood rubber bump stops. There is no adjuster screw for left and right adjustment but you can tweak if you need to by loosening the bolts on the inner bracket and moving fore/aft.
Measure the height from the ground to the center of the low beam bulb. Then park the truck 25ft from a wall on a level surface. Night time will be easier to see. Adjust so that the beam is 2-3inches below your measurement on the wall.
Aftermarket headlights should have an adjuster if they are dot approved.
