Headlight aiming

I just got a 2002 ranger supercab 4x4 4.oL and I can tell that the headlights aren't aimed properly. I was just curious if anyone could give me a quick and easy way to check the angle without having to take it in to the dealer like the owners manual says.

From: suthern elinoees
From the December 1999 issue of OFF ROAD-

The easiest way to aim your headlamps is to park on level ground approximately 25 feet from a wall. Turm on your lights and adjust your beams so they strike the wall below what would be eye level of an oncoming driver. This should be at least 4 inches below the centerline of your headlights.
