Not the good kind of flashing. Im talking high beam headlight. I only have 35's and a 3" lift and I get it all the time. It is getting old. I could not find the adjusments for the headlights. Anyone lower thier headlights?

I used to get flashed when I was stock. Here is some info. It is a pretty easy fix. Head-Light Adjustment...

Yes, adjust the headlight and you won't be flash anymore. Also the right headligh should be adjusted lower than the left.

i was getting flashed quite often after the 4" lift and the 35" tires then i realized a good thing with this setup. i could spot coons way up in a tree from the jeep with the headlights on bright then i was told that was illegal so i broke down and got the star bit driver and brought them back down since i couldnt hunt the coons from inside the jeep
