headlight problem

my passenger side healight is about half a foot lower than the driver side. the driver side is where it should be. ive tried raising it with the gear but it doesnt move it. im thinking its as high as it goes and im out of ideas. i really dont want to take it to a dealer and im hoping i can fix it. any suggestions?
thanks

Ya, i took mine to the dealer cause i was too lazy to do it myself and they whacked me for $45...and its still a little off, but if i bring it back they will blame it on the springs or tell me i took out my headlights to clear them (which was the main reason i brought them in to be re-aligned) . :ar15: dealers
