Head Lamp bulbs, 32/50 candle power
Question on installing the 32/50 candle power head light bulbs.
1. Is the low beam filament on top with the high beam on the bottom
2. How does one know which is the high beam filament vs the low beam, both by appearance and size look the same. The bulbs go into the socket either way.

3. When aligning the headlights the Ford Service Bulletin says 37" from the ground 25' out from the screen or board. Should the center of the beam be 37" off the ground or should the top of the beam be 37"?
