Default headlight adjustment

Im having a problem aiming the headlight. Two of the headlight the adjusting screw run out of travel. Ive disassembled everything and cleaned everything. The buckets are in the correct location. I replaced the hardware from a Corvette vender. Any ideas?

Wrong parts?

I used the AIM page instructions for setting mine.
