headlight
ive noticed that my passenger headlight moves up and down slightly
i was told to check the bolts on the motor
well i cheched them and they are all tight however the arm that pushes them up is loose and there is no adjustment of any kind on the arm my question is when i push the light up and down i can see the head of the motor moving back and forth
is this because my gears in the motor or starting to strip
the drivers side doesnt do this
any help is appreciated
thanks

If your head light wiggles in the down position, then you cracked the carriage that holds the light assembly. I did this to mine (I have no idea how). I epoxied mine back together but it only lasted for another 3-4 months.

Check the large pin that connects the motor arm to the headlight assembly. Mine came loose when the lock washer on the end came off and allowed the pin to eventually slide out of position. Yours may be in the early stage of this.
