My headlights are sticking.  Does anyone have a diagram of where the adjusting ---- are and the easiest way to fix them so they don't slip again.  Thanks Dick 

PS Installed the new power brake booster today.  I'm not the quickest but I got it done--Then tonite while out driving I tried to put up the headlights--left one up right one stuck half way.  Hope to fix it this weekend.

Richard, you may need to lubricate the linkages for the lights, or, there may be a vaccuum problem with the one that doesn't go all the way up. If you were able to pull the light on up, then I would think it is not an adjustment type prob.
Do they both go down OK, or does the one stay up?

 maybe you disturb some vacuum hoses under the dash when you replaced the booster
