    Hey guys so my headlights won't adjust horizontally or vertically

    I was adjusting them after the BHLM and they got stuck and won't move

    Any suggestions

    Sounds like you've stripped the adjustment nuts inside somehow. :(

    Have you tried turning them some both ways? I had an aftermarket set that seemed like they were stuck, but after I turned the adjustments the opposite way, then back, they seemed to unstick and adjust back the way I needed.

    I really hope not haha anyway of bypassing the screw?

    I am going to try that once I can get the headlights off the truck so they're easier to work with

    i know this is an old bump but did you get it fixed. My neighbor has a set of aftermarket BHLM lights he wants to sell, but if i cant get them to adjust i dont want to buy.

    Yeah I got them to adjust! I just had adjusted them past the "limit", so they got stuck, I just had to take them off and work to fix them! so you should be good to go!
