    Not "EXACTLY" the same topic but, on my 34 I had unknowingly reversed the 2 light stands, and I couldn't get the lights to align. They would stare at the ceiling. Out of curiousity, I swapped'em and all was well.

    Not sure if you can do it on yours, but maybe?!?!?

    Sorry tried to get photos up but the system says I am not allowed......The shock mount has the light cup attached to the outside edge of it. The cup is way off level and points up on the front edge. I am thinking about using some washers and JB Weld inside the cup to bring the bottom of the cup to level. I ordered some cups from speedway today that should sit up (taller) in the existing cup to support the headlight in a level plain. If I can get this cup level I should be able to adjust the lights correctly ..........The frame is painted if not I would just cut them off and reweld them. If this doesnt work I think I will just cut off the cup and go with a So Cal bar, with the old headlights the ball at the bottom of the light allowed for a lot more adjustment than these commercial lights do. Should have checked the levels before I started ........never assume makes an a-- out of you and me
