Larry, if you get a minute I would appreciate your 8.1 input: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=721338 |
That is funny. I lost a couple tools similar to that
The original mirror that came on the bear were pretty delaminated so I had G-van mirrors on it, which are identical except the tube had a slightly different bend. The G-van mirror is the one that got broke so I ordered a pair of aftermarket ones from Fleebay with low expectations. Oh, man! What junk they were just to my suspicion. The bases were so flimsy the mirrors giggled everywhere when shutting the doors. I ended up just taking the new mirror portion off and installing them on the original Suburban tubes and bases. Quality parts are hard to find these days. Friggen Taiwan and China are going to kill us all sooner or later.
I’ll take a look at that thread. Sorry, I don’t get here much unless someone whistles at me by pushing a subscribed thread to the top
This is what G-van mirrors look like on a square.
