new headlights.... aiming

I am going to install an H4 conversion kit in the jeep this weekend and was wondering if anyone has a link to a relatively quick and easy way to adjust my headlights after the install

I dont want to blind other motorists between now and when I get them aligned properly, and I know as the Jeep sits right now the headlights are seriously out of alignment

I'm lazy and will probably just tke mine to the dealer and have them adjusted when I install my lift. But, I have done it on other vehicles before. I used the wall in my garage. I just marked where the headlights where shinning and where the wheels were parked at before the truck was lifted. Then, after it was lifted, I put it back in the same exact spot and adjusted the headlights to hit the same spot. Don't know how acurate it was, but my wife drove in front of me and said they were not bothering her at all, and I could see with them just fine. So I guess it was pretty close. Also, if you have a buddy that has a stock Jeep, and yours are already out of alignment, you could use the same method but use your friends Jeep as the "spot" to go off of. Make yours hit the same spot as his stocker.
