Abstract: | A headlamp aiming tool includes a linear member and four legs. The first
and second legs are used to measure the distance between the headlamps of
a vehicle and the height of the headlamps relative to the ground or
floor. The tool may also be mounted on the vehicle via the first and
second legs and a fastener connected with the third leg arranged between
first and second legs. A laser device is connected with the fourth leg
and aligned with a centerline of the vehicle to direct a laser beam
against a screen in front of the vehicle to indicate the vehicle
centerline on the screen. The headlamp light and spacing measurements are
used to provide headlamp center points on the screen and to determine the
horizontal and vertical offset of the low beam light which is used to
adjust the aim of the headlamps. |
