Default can the headlights be adjusted?

I have a 2006 Ram 2500 megacab. I have a front end leveling kit with my cooper tires. I have noticed that the headlight beamsseem to be tilted up pretty high. One of the headlights even seems to be a little higher than the other. Is there a way to angle them down a little? I asked a service rep at the local dealer,and he said he didn't think it couldn't be adjusted. However, I was not real confident in his answer so I thought someone here might know.

all headlights are adjustable, unless DC came up with the brilliant idea to suddenly stop making them this way.
I have an 07, I went out and looked and the only adjustment i can see is a left to right adjustment.
I didnt see how it could be adjusted from top to bottom, so unless one of your brackets is bent or broken it shouldnt have to be adjusted from top to bottom.

Thanks for the info. I also found the side to side adjustment, but no luck on the up and down.

I have an 07 and thought I only had a left to right adjustment. I took it to my friend's body shop and he tried out the only adjustment (the hex that is pretty much centered up and down on the inside of the assembly), and it was the up and down. I was shocked because I thought for sure it was for the left to right. An 06 might be different, but you may want to give it a try.

Ok, I'll give it a try. I haven't messed with the adjustment screw yet. I was just going on the info from the service guy that it was a side to side. I appreciate everyones responses!
