My headlights have been having problems ever since I bought the truck. Supposedly they are out of alignment or something and aren't bright enough. They only show about 10 feet in front of me and about 20 feet with my brights on. Any help on how to fix this?

They are halogen bulbs, whenever they are "on" they use a little bit of the gas. If the bulbs are old (5+ yrs) I would start with new bulbs. The lenses are probably cloudy too, so use a polishing wheel/pad on your drill and some cut-polish compound and finish with a good wax. We just did this to my sons 99 Ram and the difference is amazing!

I couldn't find out how to adjust them in the owners manual. I googled it though and Anwers.com said to take it to a dealership to get it fixed =\
You need to probably check in the Factory Service Manual. there is a link to a service manual in FAQ1 on the main 1st gen dakota forum. Should be a post a few above this one.
