If you lift the bumper too high it's almost impossible to get to the screws to remove the marker light
I finnally lowered my bumper some last week after fighting the screws four times

You can always just loosen the bolts and drop the bumper a little to mess with the headlights. It's easy if you've got a second person around. Plus no matter how high or low it is the left hand side is lower than the right.

Ain't never been any help around my place if it ain't done by me it ain't done,was very easy to lower the bumper and leave it there
with the truck sitting level why would any side be higher than the other??????????
