Customer Reviews

Simply an Awesom Product
This tool makes adjusting your Headlights a breese. There simply isn't a comparison to what a pain it would be with out this tool.

I find it difficult to believe that this isn't a Special Tool from Ford.

This 7/8" Thick Wrench Is Too Thick For Some Cars
Get the KAS-5529A Ratcheting Wrench KAS-5529A WRENCH FORD HDLGHT instead. It is about half as thick as the Lisle Wrench. The KAS-5529A wrench looks more like a conventional box end ratchet wrench, and comes with both 4mm and 4.5mm ends to fit other vehicle headlight adjuster bolts.

This "Lisle 14540 Headlight Adjusting Ratchet for Ford" is made moderately well, but it is too thick to fit properly between the headlight and radiator firewall of my 1999 Ford Crown Victoria Interceptor. This wrench's 4mm sleeve is held in place by press fitted washers on either side. It can't be made much thinner.

This Lisle wrench may just fit onto the top adjusting bolt, but if the bolt moves backward to raise the headlight beam, the wrench may not be removed from the bolt. The headlight retaining plate(s) must then be popped loose to allow the headlight assembly to move forward enough to allow the wrench to be removed from the adjusting bolt.

Half-way good
This would be a nice little tool if the head stayed on the shaft. As soon as I opened the blister pack the ratcheting head fell off. Maybe a spot of JB Weld will fix it. It should have a set screw or screw-on wooden dowel for a shaft. All I really need is the 4mm head anyway and stick my own dowel in.
