Is it normal to have to adjust light angle with that minor of a suspension change?
TIA.

Yes, it is normal after an adjustment. You are blinding people because your lights are now pointing higher due to the lift.
Find a very flat spot with a wall.
On your headlights you will find a small raised dot in the middle. Back up your car from the wall until that dot is 25' from the wall. Not the front of the car, but that dot.
Measure the height from the ground to that dot.
Subtract 2 inches.
Put some blue tape along the wall at that height like this:
Now turn your lights on and adjust them down until the are the bottom of the blue tape (basically, 2" lower than the dot in the center of the headlight at 25'.)
There is a hole on top of each light where you insert a Phillips screwdriver to make the adjustment. There are multiple posts on how to do this.
After that you should be good to go and the people driving the other way wont be put in a dangerous situation.
Good luck.
