Here is a good site to get your headlights aimed correctly. http://www.danielsternlighting.com/tech/aim/aim.html

It is easier than the article makes it look because you can only adjust the Jeep JK headlight up and down. There is no adjustment for left and right. Basically, measure the height from the ground to the center of your headlight. Put a horizontal line on the wall with painters tape at the height of the headlights. Park your Jeep on level ground 25 feet away from the line of tape with your headlights squared to the wall that has the tape on it. Using the chart in the article, determine how many inches below the painters tape line will be where the brightest part of the headlight beam or the top of the cutoff if you have a sharp cutoff style light should be aimed. Using the chart, you would aim directly at the painters tape if your headlights are 34.5" high or less. Measure down 2 inches from the painters tape horizontal line if your headlights are 35-39" high. You are now done. Use the charts to see examples of what the beam pattern looks like.
