Headlight Actuator Rod/Clevis Adjustment
I have new actuators (in a 1977) and was wondering if the actuator rod coming out of the accordion dust boot and screwed into the clevis is used to adjust the height of the doors?
I ask because my passenger side headlight does not go up all the way and it does not go down all the way. (1/4 " both ways). I wonder if I pulled the actuator rod out too much during the installation.
I have read many of the posts on this subject but wanted to focus on the actuator rod and the clevis as the adjustment point.

Hi 81,
I don't mean to burst your bubble but I believe there are 'stops' that set the doors' position, both open and closed. I bet you adjusted the clevis so the door mechanism could reach the 'stop'.
STILL.... well done!
