Headlight mounting is generally a matter of personal preference, but here are a few guidlines to help.
- STEP 1:
Identify the driver (D) and passenger (P) side stands.
See figure 1.
|
 |
- STEP 2:
Front shock mounts must be installed or mocked up before the headlight stand can be mounted.
|
|
- STEP 3:
Assemble a headlight on a stand and move fore and aft on frame until a suitable location is found.
Note: watch for interference problems with shock mounts or grille shell.
See figure 2.
|
 |
- STEP 4:
Once a suitable location has been determined, mark the position of the bolt holes with a scribe or pencil.
Remove headlight and stand, and drill using 5/16-inch drill. See figure 3.
|
 |
- STEP 5:
Install headlight using the provided 5/16-inch carriage bolts, washer and nylock nuts. See figure 4.
|
 |
- STEP 6:
Install headlights and adjust. Note: some headlights may require modification to get full adjustment when mounted on stand. If this is necessary, disassemble headlight and file slot with a square file to give the needed adjustment.
See figure 5.
