Help With Headlights

Post by 72j2000 »

I have a 1972 j2000. it has the one piece headlights. You have to replace the whole thing not just the bulb. Does anybody know where I can get a pair of headlights?

Any McParts place should have them. They are just 7" round headlights.
1977 Cherokee S, Ford 5.0, 5 speed, BW 1356, 33 x 10.50 BFG's. No longer my DD.
2007 Mercury Milan, 2.3L, 5-speed, now my DD. 29 mpg average.

They are just standard sealed meam bulbs any supply house will have them. Youy can also go on Ebay/amazon & buy H-4 conversions that replace them with a non sealed beam solution I 've dome both of mine. then you can useall th ecolol bulbs even HID if you wish. If you shop carefully you can buy th eH-4 kits for the same price as sealed beams.

Example:

1980 Honcho 258 4 speed mostly stock with 4 " lift.

IIRC H6014 is the 7" round incandescent sealed beam. H6024 is the halogen replacement (without replaceable bulbs). Any parts store, even Walmart has them.

I bought a pair of the H6024 napa bulbs from rockauto.com on clearance for like $2 apiece.

Make sure if you upgrade the lights, you do a wiring upgrade too. It will make a big difference in how bright they are, and no burn up your wiring. I did H4 upgrades and a Hella relay upgrade, and mine are plenty bright.
