Anyone else get this?
Okay, so i have a 2008 2d JK X with 33" tires and a 3.25" lift on it. When ever I have my headlights on, I get the majority of people I pass to flash their high beams at me in attempt to tell me to turn my "high beams" off. I laugh at these people because there is truly nothing I can do. It used to be only when i also had my fog lights on but now it is also is when I just have the normal driving light s on. 
Can anyone relate?

Did you happen to actually read the install guide that came with your lift?
Step 5 in the post install checklist says to, and I quote:
5. Readjust headlights to proper settings.

The headlights are aimed too high from the factory when the JK's just at stock height. When I first got mine people were constantly flashing me at night & giving me the finger and adjusting their rearview mirrors down as they assumed I had my high beams on. I now have the headlight level switch on the dash at the lowest setting to keep them aimed at the road and not at eye level.

I was responding to HIS statement. I personally don't think that knowingly blinding every single oncoming car is a reason to sit back and laugh. It's a reason to get off your ass and figure out why it's happening, and fix it. Again, his statement - It has been going on for some time...
