Default Paging Dr. Schwing. You are needed STAT!

<center><img src="http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/ee27/sims159914/DSC_0138.jpg"></center><p>My headlight leveling arm in the front frivers wheel well has broken and now my lights are facing the ground big time. I have the part number for the arm itself but cannot find any info or picture of where it attaches to the control arm.

If someone would be so kind can you post pics of where it attaches on the control arm and the part numbers for the control arm hardware as that is also missing.

Thanks for the help guys, and LMK if you have any tips for getting the lights up until I can properly fix the sensor.

Default Nice wheels!!! ;-)>>>

you need to pull the left front wheel to make it easier...

If you look right behind the strut you will see a triangular shaped (sorted rounded off) arm..there is a hole on the end of it...that is where the arm goes in....

When i did mine, i removed the actual controller to make it easier to work with...Sorry i do not have pictures...

As far as raising the lights...there is not enough adjustment to get them level if the sensor is broken...better off to fix the arm and leave your adjustments alone...IMO
