Are the springs in place?

Springs?? what springs??

How about the springs that hold tension on the h/light bucket? There should be one on each lamp assembly in the corner opposit of the 2 adjusters. They sometimes rust and brake off or stretch with fitigue. Also make sure that all 4 screws are securing the retaining ring to the bucket sandwiching the bulb in place.

More than likely. It probly would be helpfull to look at an identical truck or at one of the online headlamp exploded veiws at one of the resteration suppliers website.

If you look at the picture the bottom left is an indentation.  That is where the spring goes.  It is mounted in the core support.
