    Okay having trouble with inner silver can attaching properly. Must be doing something wrong. I know the spring goes on lower left but the two attachment screws don't seem to line up. Also' not sure if I put the adjustment screws back in properly? Should have done one at a time? Denis

    Interesting, Denis~ I cannot remember too much about when I did my headlights. I think I have two buckets still out in the garage. I could get a picture of one that is assembled to where you would just stick a bulb in it and maybe it would help figure out what you need to do.
    Actually, by now I hope you already figured it out?
    Sorry there weren't any replies to your question. #confused#

    Thanks ZIG, I was able to figure it out. A guy on The Stovebolt forum shared a picture and i found my errors. I had the adjusting screws in 90 degrees off. So all good thanks for checking in.

    Nope much work to be done. As I unwired the truck I found many things to make better, so slowly but surely it is coming together.
