Does anybody have a truck with any sport mirrors mounted on them. I have seen pictures (more would help too) and would like to know what the mirrors were designed to fit. Also how hard it is to make happen. I have the 1 piece glass and really like this look. Thanks

I have the factory sport mirrors but am thinking about going with the custom fiberglass paintable mirrors that have the blinker in them

This?

Jemost 72 Those are the mirrors I have right now. The only complaint I have about those is that the passenger mirror really isn't very practicable. It is hard to position it so it works.

This is what I went with. I took the vent out and filled it up. Then added the mirror's.

Andy that is what I am talking about. What were those made to fit? I want to get the angles as close as possible in the front.

My love grows for my foamy friend, with each thirst-quenching elbow bend. Beer so frosty, smooth, and cold it's paradise pure liquid gold. Yes beer means many things to me that's all for now cus I gotta pee.

It sucks not being able to hear! LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB! After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
