I have a question on what is the proper level the headlight bucket should be at.
My car has the passenger side bucket over an inch lower than the fender when up. The bracket had been cut & rewelded to the headlight bar before, but not aligned poperly when installed. Not enough adjustment on the up limit switch to move it up enough.
I see some cars have them flush to the headlight opening lip when up & others are slightly below, but they still look to clear the opening.
My drivers side was slightly below, but the bucket is 1/4 in or more forward of the opening. So there is no way for it to come up through the opening & flush to the lip. I tried repositioning the welded bracket but nothing seems to get the bucket centered when closed & to clear the opening & flush to the lip when up.
Included a few pictures of other cars to show what I mean by flush & just under.
Any tips on best way to get both aligned when closed & flush to the opening when up? If it matters, I have an early '72 car. Maybe the alignment differs by model?
